I have a web site.  The web site gets PDF forms form users, and stores them in database.  I would like to enhance the site by creating a routing to dynamically create image preview of those forms.  So, users won't have to open a PDF file, but instead they can view reduced image version of it (for 300 by 400 pixels, for example).  Thanks...

Check out ImageMagick at imagemagick.org.  It's a great utility that can convert most image formats to other image formats.  You'll have to make sure that your hosting company has support for ImageMagick (many do).  Then it's easy.  Your PHP code will look like this:\n\n$ImageMagick="/usr/X11R6/bin/convert sample.pdf sample.jpg";\nexec($ImageMagick,$output);\n\nThere are LOTS of options for creating thumbnails (or images of any size), adding shadows, image effects, converting images from one type to another, etc.\n\nIt is the PREMIER software for the PHP programmer.  Just make sure your hosting company has it installed or will install for you.\n\nVisit:\nhttp://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php\n\nGood luck.

What you want to do is fairly complex and would require extensive HTML / script coding experience.\n\nThat said, the way you make an HTML e-mail letter with images is to basically have your images, etc. stored on a Web server that allows hotlinking.\n\nFor example, suppose you company's Web server is located at http://www.mycompany.com/ and you store your newsletter images in a folder named newsletter.\n\nThen, if this was the HTML text of your newsletter, you would be able to see the images:\n\n<html>\n<head>\n<title>Newsletter</title>\n</head>\n<body>\n<h4>Hello World!</h4>\n<p>This is our new newsletter. Hope you like it.</p>\n<img src="http://www.mycompany.com/newsletter/image.jpg" />\n<br />\n</body>\n</html>\n\nIn other words, you simply edit the body text of your newsletter to be in HTML, using absolute addressing for all links, then send that to the recipients.\n\nThis may help you more:\n\nhttp://www.sitepoint.com/article/code-html-email-newsletters

Yahoo! SiteBuilder allows you to create web sites containing as many web pages as you like. The Site Creation Wizard makes the process simple. Let's get started!\n1: Select New Site... from the File menu.\n \n2: Click Start.\n \n3: Choose a name for your web site and pick a folder on your computer where you will store your web site files (we recommend the default location). Click Next.\n \n4: Would you like to start building your site with a predesigned template or with a blank page? (Don't worry about locking yourself into a decision: You'll be able to edit and fully customize your pages anytime.) Select one option here and click Next.\n \n5: If you chose a blank page, you're ready to start editing your site and adding your own page elements. Click Finish to return to Help.\nIf you chose to start with a template, pick your design here. In the Templates: field, browse the selection to find a template you'd like to download. (To limit your choices, you can first select a category from the Template categories: pull-down menu.) Templates you have already downloaded will be marked with a small check.\nTo select a template, click its image once.\n \nChoose View Full Size to see a larger preview of the template, or choose Next to continue with this template. If you have not yet downloaded this template (the template will not be marked with a check), SiteBuilder will confirm that you'd like to download this template now. Choose OK to continue.\n(To download all templates now, click the Download All Templates link.)\nWhen you're satisfied with your choice, choose Next.\n6: Check the box next to each page you'd like to create now, choose to create a navigation bar, then click Next. (Please note that the Site Creation Wizard will always create a home page; this checkbox will be selected by default.)

Ajax is very powerful stuff - but its really useful in populating forms and interface elements in a web page without refreshing or reloading. I second the first poster's suggestion that you really ought to consider Flash for such a thing, since just about everyone has Flash anyway.... its graphics model would be less flaky than a web browser, and you wouldn't have to worry about the behaviour of different browsers.

Some editors (dreamweaver, homesite, ??) may allow PHP previewing internally; but, normally you would have to test it on a local / development server with PHP support. If your computer has IIS with PHP support, you can test it there; or, you can install Apache and test it.\n\nAlso for testing, you could go with a real simple setup, called LAMPP or XAMPP depending on your system (linux/windows).

Use this code:\n\n<a href="largeImage.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="smallImage.jpg" width="320" height="240" alt=" " /></a>\n\nLet us know if you still need help. Here's two handy links though.

Web pages are mostly written in HTML.  If you want pages to accept data or do cool things like show picture slide shows you can use javascript.  Now if you want to create truely dynamic web pages that people can log in at, extract data, or search for things you'll want to use PHP.  To search you'll need a database to store info in which case you can use SQL, one such implementation is MySQL.  \n\nThese are all FREE!  There are pleanty of resources on the net to teach you.  So just search on their names and you will get plenty to keep you busy.\n\nThere are more, but this is a very popular group of software commonly known as LAMP.  Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP. \n\nWhen you get all that working you can create super fancy stuff using FLASH from Adobe-Macromedia.  That one will cost ya.

Yes, it's recommended that you have two versions of each image, one that's a thumbnail size (generally around 30 - 50 pixels wide x however tall in correct aspect ratio), and one that's a larger size (anything from 300 - 600 pixels wide x however tall in correct aspect ratio)\n\nThis way, you can load a results type page that has multiple thumbnail sized  images (perhaps 20 - 40 images), and then upon clicking a thumbnail, it loads only that corresponding large image.  Each thumbnail should be smaller than 5-10k (kilobytes), and each full sized image should generally be less than 60k (kilobytes).\n\nWhen working with internet only images (vs. print) your dpi should always be 72.  Anything larger than that (such as 300 dpi) should be downgraded to 72 dpi.\n\nDPI is the total resolution of the image, and when I mentioned pixels that's the specific width and height on your screen.\n\nThe reason for two versions of each image (at two different sizes) is because when you're creating a catalog type results page and there's 20 items to be viewed, your page's weight (in kilobytes) should generally be approximately 100k.  20 thumbnail images at 5k/image = 100k.  Then when each thumbnail is clicked that's an additional 60k image that's loaded after the original page is loaded.  This is perfectly acceptable, and recommended.\n\nUsing Adobe Photoshop (the industry standard for graphics) you will be able to convert your high resolution images down to web sized images (if you're using Photoshop CS, there's an item in the file drop down menu labeled "save for web."  Choose that option and set your image compression at the highest (most compressed) setting that still allows your images to look distinguishable.  Also note, if your images have mostly solid colors you should choose the GIF compression format, and if the image is more like a photograph with many different colors choose the JPG compression format.

Dynamic pages are generated on servers that take advantage of PHP or any other dynamic scripting language (Ruby on Rails, ASP.net, Cold Fusion, etc.).\n\nTo have "dynamic content" I'm assuming you would want user-generated content or some sort of content-management system instead of hard coding html. \n\nThis is accomplished using a database. One of choice for starters is MySQL. You basically make a site using in-line php & html, then connect to a database using php, then grab some data off of it and display it.\n\nI'll make an example fake php script:\n\n<?php\n  $db_connection = mysql_connect($server, $username, $pass) or die("could not connect to my mysql database!");\n?>\n<html>\n<head><title>Hello World! This is my site</title></head>\n<body>\n<h1>This header is some static (unchanging) content!</h1>\n<?php\n // this is a comment. now will get things off the DB\n $query = "SELECT * FROM posts ORDER BY time DESC LIMIT 1";\n  // the above query is in "SQL syntax"... it means "get everything from the table 'posts' and order the results by when they were created limited only to the most recent one"\n  \n  // then we run the query:\n  $result = mysql_query($query);\n  $data = mysql_fetch_array($result);\n\necho "This was posted by " . $data['user'] . " on " . $data['time'] . " and the content is " . $data['content'] . "<br />";\n\n?>\n  Here's some garbage after the dynamic content. It would change of course if you had something new in your DB every now and then!\n</body>\n</html>

Depending on the format of the files you create, you can just hyperlink to them.\n\nIf you are posting executables (.exe, .jar, etc.), you should be able to just put the file in the same folder as the web site and hyperlink to them.\n\nIf you are posting a program that would be interpreted by the browser (.jsp, .php, etc.) then you can put it in a zip file and post that to the page instead.\n\nActually, you may want to put it in a zip file anyway.

You can't. You either need to specify the subdirectory (e.g. src=<images/image1.jpg" /> or else move the images into the same directory as your files (I wouldn't recommend that). Also, by the way, you should add a slash at the end of your br's and img's, like this:\n\n<img src="image1.jpg" /><br /><br />\n\nThis will make it XHTML compliant, which you should definately adhere to. I am a web designer, so if you need help, send me a message!

you will need to try a few ideas to get quality and right with your cartoons - scanning can be Ok but the size of the pic can be huge which will slow down page loadings if there are many on a page.\n\nYou can create THUMBNAIL of the pics and viewers can then click to view the FULL SIZE\n\nPDF files are another way of getting images on a site as a DOWNLOAD OR viewable see free services search "PDF maker free"
