We use compressImg($source, $destination, $quality) function that helps to compress and save image on the server using PHP.

Here is the compression code.

Html Code

<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

    <label>Select Image File:</label>

    <input type="file" name="image">

    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Upload">

</form>

This function accepts the following parameters and returns the compressed image.

• $source – An image file source to compress size.
• $destination – Server path to save the compressed image.
• $quality – Image quality.

php code

function compressImg($source, $destination, $quality) {

       // Get image info 

       $info = getimagesize($source);

   

   

    // Create a new image from file 

       if ($info['mime'] == 'image/jpeg') 

           $image = imagecreatefromjpeg($source);

   

       elseif ($info['mime'] == 'image/gif') 

           $image = imagecreatefromgif($source);

   

       elseif ($info['mime'] == 'image/png') 

           $image = imagecreatefrompng($source);

   

       // Save image    



       imagejpeg($image, $destination, $quality);

   

   

    // Return compressed image 

       return $destination;

   }
