If I understand your question correctly, there's some missing info here.

Are you running a web server or just coding a php page to use the GD Library functions?

If you're running the web server, the GD Library files have to be added to the web server installation, there's probably an INSTALL or readme file with the GD Library package.

If you're coding PHP to use the GD functions, put the following into a PHP page

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

on your web site. Run the page to see if GD is installed and which version they have installed. If GD is installed your PHP code will work, providing you only use functions supported by the version installed.

I just wanna know whether I need to include any header files in php code to use the gd library as in C++ or no

no
