How to output graphical text button via PHP?

[irock]

Hi, pls see subject. I only need to output several BW text buttons. Could anyone help? Some links to tutorials will be fine ;)

[jatar_k]

did you want to use php to draw them or just to output img tags?

[irock]

draw them.

I want a program that can output graphical words with feeding different words from a URL.
/draw.php?words=My%20Stuff

And the program will return a GIF with "My Stuff" in it.

I wonder what font family choices do I have.

... you may look at the GD graphics library. Should be part of your PHP setup. However, I am not sure if it gives out GIFs again. Perhaps you are still stuck with JPGs and PNGs.
