php functions

[ehamlin]

Has anyone used the new swf functions in PHP4? The documentation is pretty scanty. I'm particularly having trouble understanding how to use the button functions -- I can get a button's "rest" state to appear, but I can't get it to respond to anything: rollover, press, etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, since in my excitement over the possibilities of these functions, I stupidly committed to building a php-generated flash site.

If you ask me, the easiest way would be to use Javascript to interface between your PHP and your Flash since it is better documented.

I'll plug my php/swf output library here:

It's way beta, but it's got plenty of examples and documentation and it does some stuff that the existing php/swf code doesn't do, like mp3 streaming and easy action scripting. Also, I've now got it in .dll and .so form so you can easily plug it into your php environment without having to compile php yourself.

Check it out, lemme know what you think..
