php4 flash Q

[CptDondo]

I have the following snippet I wrote that worked fine using a home-built
ming library. Now it turns out it's not a part of PHP4, which is what I
have:

$f = new SWFFont("/lib/flashfonts/Bitstream Vera Sans.fdb");
$t = new SWFText();
$t->setFont($f);
$t->moveTo(0, 0);
$t->setColor(0xf f, 0xff, 0xff);
$t->setHeight($fon tHeight);
$t->addString("" );

Could some kind person please clue me in on how to write this for PHP4?
I can't find any good examples or go-bys.

Thanks,

--Yan

AFAIK ming support was added in PHP4's early versions. I see no methods/
properties in your example that aren't covered by it. Perhaps your host
just hasn't built their PHP with ming support enabled.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.ming.php

If that's the case I don't know how to get by this limitation other than
switching hosts or ask your current provider to enable ming.

Yeah, the PHP docs are a bit misleading on this. With ming installed it
works fine - but the PHP.net docs show this as only available for PHP5.

Sorry for the confusion.

No prob. Just checked the docs here and it says available since
version 4.0.5. Perhaps not al php.net mirrors are fully synchronized.
This is for the reference page only btw. The separate SWF
functions/classes have no version info AFAICT.

Anyway, good luck Yan!
