Dynamically generating a QR code with PHP [closed]

It’s worth adding that, in addition to the QR codes library posted by @abaumg, Google provides a QR Codes API QR Codes APImany thanks to @Toukakoukan for the link update.

To use this , basically:

https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=300x300&cht=qr&chl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F&choe=UTF-8
  • 300x300 is the size of the QR image you want to generate,
  • the chl is the url-encoded string you want to change into a QR code, and
  • the choe is the (optional) encoding.

The link, above, gives more detail, but to use it just have the src of an image point to the manipulated value, like so:

<img src="https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=300x300&cht=qr&chl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F&choe=UTF-8" title="Link to Google.com" />
