function image_scale

Scales an image while maintaining aspect ratio.

The resulting image can be smaller for one or both target dimensions.

Parameters

$image: An image object returned by image_load().

$width: The target width, in pixels. If this value is NULL then the scaling will be based only on the height value.

$height: The target height, in pixels. If this value is NULL then the scaling will be based only on the width value.

$upscale: Boolean indicating that files smaller than the dimensions will be scaled up. This generally results in a low quality image.

Return value

TRUE on success, FALSE on failure.
