Can PNG image transparency be preserved when using PHP's GDlib imagecopyresampled?

imagealphablending( $targetImage, false );imagesavealpha( $targetImage, true );

did it for me. Thanks ceejayoz.

note, the target image needs the alpha settings, not the source image.

Edit:full replacement code. See also answers below and their comments. This is not guaranteed to be be perfect in any way, but did achieve my needs at the time.

$uploadTempFile = $myField[ 'tmp_name' ]list( $uploadWidth, $uploadHeight, $uploadType )   = getimagesize( $uploadTempFile );$srcImage = imagecreatefrompng( $uploadTempFile ); $targetImage = imagecreatetruecolor( 128, 128 );   imagealphablending( $targetImage, false );imagesavealpha( $targetImage, true );imagecopyresampled( $targetImage, $srcImage,                     0, 0,                     0, 0,                     128, 128,                     $uploadWidth, $uploadHeight );imagepng(  $targetImage, 'out.png', 9 );

Why do you make things so complicated? the following is what I use and so far it has done the job for me.

$im = ImageCreateFromPNG($source);$new_im = imagecreatetruecolor($new_size[0],$new_size[1]);imagecolortransparent($new_im, imagecolorallocate($new_im, 0, 0, 0));imagecopyresampled($new_im,$im,0,0,0,0,$new_size[0],$new_size[1],$size[0],$size[1]);

I believe this should do the trick:

$srcImage = imagecreatefrompng($uploadTempFile);imagealphablending($srcImage, false);imagesavealpha($srcImage, true);

edit: Someone in the PHP docs claims imagealphablending should be true, not false. YMMV.
