Hi, I heard that it is possible to have PHP generate a thumbnail of a page. I am just wondering how you can do this. An example of what I am talking about is this (http://demo1.pligg.com/) just rollover a URL to see what I am talking about.

Thanks!

The only thing that the website you posted above did was utilize msn's website to make the thumbnail, then use a javascript tooltip to display the image. The msn website is as follows:

http://msnsearch.srv.girafa.com/srv/i?s=MSNSEARCH&r=url

(Note: change "url" to the website you want a thumbnail of.)

Hope this helps.

that actually doesn't work... Well kinda, when i insert a new directory (ie. www.example.com/new_directory) it will still show only what is on www.example.com. Any ideas on how to fix this?
