That really doesn't answer my question. I was using that, but it seems it wasn't moved from GS1 to GS2 right ... for example
PHP Code:
temp.blah = "meow";
echo( gettextwidth( "Arial", "b", temp.blah ) );
won't work. However
PHP Code:
temp.blah = "meow";
echo( gettextwidth( "Arial", "b", meow ) );
will, even without quotes around meow ...
