returning image file from image data in php

Question

thank you for responding ;

I have image data in $snap , the content of $snap is like this :

data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAA... etc

I need that my php file return $snap as image file ; when the example-image.php oppend it shoud be like example.jpg

this is the script I want to respond to it :

jQuery.get(domainPath+'&getImage&site='+inputHost,function(data){
     $("#screenshotData").html('<img src="data:image/jpeg;base64,'+data+'"/>');
});

The script above will use my respond to make an img html tag , I can't change the script above ; my respond shoud make the script above applicable .

Since your JavaScript code is expecting base64 content, you should be able to just echo it from your PHP script--after removing the part that you don't need.

<?php

$snap = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAA...';

// remove the prefix 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' because JavaScript is prepending this
$data = str_replace('data:image/jpeg;base64,', '', $snap);

// output the data
echo $data;
