I wanted to create web based slideshow and audio media presentations and was
disappointed by two PHP function sets. I would love to hear of any others that might
be available.
Tried MING, and discovered that there were at least 3 different versions (all numbered
version 0.2a) that were incompatible with each other depending on where I installed my
code.
Example:
function swfbitmap
1). would in one case accept a string containing image.
2). in a second case accepted a string containing a file name but not the bitmap
3). and in a third case only accepted a file handle (returned from fopen) of
the file containing the bit map and not just the filename.
I then tried the SWFlib functions available with PHP and discovered that it is no
longer supported, and that source is unavailable. (one reason that a version for the
windows platform is unavailable). This also means that keeping up with the latest
shockwave reader features is not possible (which bothers me more).
Are there any options I have overlooked?
thanks in advance,
Warren Vail
