Live Thumbnails/Large Image

Question

Is there any way to get a certain thumbnail generated by PHP from a live given URI? I also would want to do this for the live on click image.

When I click the thumbnail I want it to enlarge into a bigger image = lightbox — Jess McKenzie, Mar 27 '12 at 22:08
So you are asking two questions, then? A way to generate a thumbnail via php on a live uri (your site, or another site?), then when you click the thumbnail, a lightbox to view the full size image? — random_user_name, Mar 27 '12 at 22:09
Another site and yes when clicked I want to load a fullsize image of the live site — Jess McKenzie, Mar 27 '12 at 22:10

Form what i understand you want to generate thumbnail of a given website via its URL ???

If that is what you want then Website screenshots using PHP would help you

I prefer the Pure PHP option if you are using a windows server but if not then you would have to use 3rd party APU like http://www.thumbalizr.com/apitools.php

Another method is using HTML5 Canvas or Converting the site to PDF -> PNG or any image format

I hope this information helps

Thanks :)

Load the remote site into a page body then $('body').html2canvas(); to convert it to canvas .... are you using windows ?? why doen you use the pure PHP example ??? – Baba Mar 28 '12 at 07:30
