quick imagecreatefromjpeg question

On my way out the door, but will need to know this in the AM. (and no, I
didn't have time to RTMF...)

Can I use raw data instead of a file patch with imagecreatefromjpeg?

For instance, I used fread to get the contents of a JPEG image, now I
need to resize. imagecreatefromjpeg is the first step in my routine, but
I haven't used the raw data before. Just wondering if anyone else has
done this and can point me in the right direction.

If this is covered in the manual, just ignore the post (unless you have
something to ad). {sorry}

For those curious, the answer was no. You have to write out a temp file
first.

Does imagecreatefromstring not work?

heh, never even thought about looking for other functions to do it... I
was modifying a class method that I had previously written to work with
files. Oh well... at least I know where to look next time I need to do
this, thanks.
