#6643 — Draw some simple rectangles?

I'd like to draw some simple rectangles--maybe have some text and a 7x5 
(dimensions) rectangle beside it.

Is there an easy way to do this, or should I just create some images?

to do this in PHP have a look at the ImageLine function.

Draw this on what? 7x5 whats? Pixels? Inches? How often do you want to
do this?

To people who know nothing, anything is possible.
To people who know too much, it is a sad fact
that they know how little is really possible -
and how hard it is to achieve it.

A pencil, paper  and a stencil is a good start..

Or you could do it on a browser with HTML.

Not sure any of this is relevant to PHP tho.

Use GD lib. It should be pretty easy with this:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagerectangle.php

Or even easier, Google his phrase "GD lib draw rectangle tutorial".

Probably simpler, but learning how to use GD lib is also a worthwhile 
activity - and you can then make different sized rectangles on the fly.
