how to convert html code to png image using php [duplicate]

Question

Is there a php script that allow to convert a html code to a png image. The problem with GD library is that only convert text to image( and not html code )

Answer 1

There is no pure PHP solution to this.

Basically you've got two options:

1. Client-side rendering
   Use something like html2canvas to render your image using javascript in the browser.
2. Server-side rendering
   Use a library like wkhtmltopdf which can be invoked by PHP to generate the image.
   Another server-side solution would be using Phantom.js which can also run javascript before capturing the screen.
