Once you've successfully installed PHP with Shockwave Flash support you can then go about creating Shockwave files from PHP. You would be surprised at what you can do, take the following code:
Example #1 SWF example
<?php
swf_openfile("test.swf", 256, 256, 30, 1, 1, 1);
swf_ortho2(-100, 100, -100, 100);
swf_defineline(1, -70, 0, 70, 0, .2);
swf_definerect(4, 60, -10, 70, 0, 0);
swf_definerect(5, -60, 0, -70, 10, 0);
swf_addcolor(0, 0, 0, 0);
swf_definefont(10, "Mod");
swf_fontsize(5);
swf_fontslant(10);
swf_definetext(11, "This be Flash wit PHP!", <
style="color: #007700">, 60);
swf_popmatrix();
for ($i = 0; $i < 30; $i++) {
$p = $i/(30-1);
swf_pushmatrix();
swf_scale(1-($p*.9), 1, 1);
swf_rotate(60*$p, 'z');
swf_translate(20+20*$p, $p/1.5, 0);
swf_rotate(270*$p, 'z');
swf_addcolor($p, 0, $p/1.2, -$p);
swf_placeobject(1, 50);
swf_placeobject(4, 50);
swf_placeobject(5
30; $i++) {
swf_removeobject(50);
if (($i%4) == 0) {
swf_showframe();
}
}
swf_startdoaction();
swf_actionstop();
swf_enddoaction();
swf_closefile();
?>
