I found this hint helpful for my needs and just tried it out, but I've hit
a (possible) bug, which should be mentioned, but is not essential, but not
always obvious.
When having whitespace in local.php outside the php start/stop tags, the
render_image.php also generates this whitespace, which renders the
resulting PNG graphics broken.
E.g. if you put this in your local.php:
---------------------------- start here ---------------------------------
<?
echo "blah";
?>
---------------------------- stop here ----------------------------------
it works, but
---------------------------- start here ---------------------------------
<?
echo "blah";
?>
---------------------------- stop here ----------------------------------
doesn't :-)
