if you want to integrate the c/c++ codes in php you can use the build_skel that follows php to do this. write:
./build_skel --extname=calculate --proto=/path/to/calculate.proto --assign-params where extname is the extension name and proto is a file containing the prototypes of the functions to create. something like this: void calc_over( double value ) double calc_under( double value, double type ) and so on... im sure there are howtos and such on the net, so i dont botter writing it all down.
