looking for a PHP GD tutorial for capturing part of a screen and saving it as an image.?

So I have a little web application I have been building in JavaScript and the final piece to complete the app is to be able to capture a rectangular area on the screen and save it to the server as an image.
My server is running PHP 4.3.11 at this time, and I have been able to get basic GD functions to work (like saving text as an image). However, I am unable to figure out how to select an area on the screen to be saved.

I went through the PHP.net site and googled for almost an hour with no success.

I know this has been done before but i just cannot seem to find any instructions or walkthroughs on that process. Is there anyone out there who knows of some good tutorials on this or possibly knows how to do this themselves?

Thanks!
