Does anybody know of a good way to do face detection in PHP? I came across some code here that claims to do this, but I can't seem to get it to work properly. I'd like to make this work (even though it will be slow) and any help you can give me would be really appreciated.
Here's the code from the link:

Usage:
$detector = new Face_Detector('detection.dat');
$detector->face_detect('maurice_svay_150.jpg');
$detector->toJpeg();
The problem I am running into, seems to be coming up in the comments on that page as well. "imagecolorat() [function.imagecolorat]: 320,1 is out of bounds." So, I added a error_reporting(0) to the top of the file (not really the solution), and it seems to work sometimes while other times it just doesn't do anything.
Any thoughts?
