Get image height and width PHP ?

Last updated on January 17, 2018

We can easily extract image information from the Image URL using PHP’s predefined function called getimagesize()

I Use this function whenever I need to know image HEIGHT and WIDTH, this function returns an array with 5 items, first, two are image Height and width, 3rd one is image type(png/jpg…etc, ) find more image types list below.. etc

 // get width and height 
 list($width, $height) = getimagesize($filename);
or 
$data = getimagesize($filename);
$width = $data[0];
$height= $data[1];

We can use this function to get image height and width while uploading images

 list($width, $height) = getimagesize($_FILES['upload']['tmp_name']);
