Is there a way to tell browsers to honor the jpeg exif orientation?

Question

I know that the automatic rotation of JPG files is disabled in browsers.

They can not enable it because it would break the layout of some websites.

Is there

Answer 1

I've written a little php script which rotates the image. Be sure to store the image in favour of just recalculate it each request.

<?php

header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
$img = 'IMG URL';

$exif = @exif_read_data($img,0,true);
$orientation = @$exif['IFD0']['Orientation'];
if($orientation == 7 || $orientation == 8) {
    $degrees = 90;
} elseif($orientation == 5 || $orientation == 6) {
    $degrees = 270;
} elseif($orientation == 3 || $orientation == 4) {
    $degrees = 180;
} else {
    $degrees = 0;
}
$rotate = imagerotate(imagecreatefromjpeg($img), $degrees, 0);
imagejpeg($rotate);
imagedestroy($rotate);

?>

Cheers
