Is it necessary to compile PHP to enable image display properties?

To enable image display properties in PHP, you do not need to compile PHP. You can achieve this by ensuring that the GD library is installed and enabled in your PHP configuration. The GD library provides functions for image manipulation and processing, allowing you to work with images in PHP.

// Check if GD library is enabled
if (extension_loaded('gd') && function_exists('gd_info')) {
    echo "GD library is enabled, you can now work with image display properties.";
} else {
    echo "GD library is not enabled, please enable it in your PHP configuration.";
}
