Flashy PHP scripts
My awesome webhost has once again improved their product by adding a new extension for PHP.
It’s called ming and it can be used to make Flash clips, yes that’s right, SWF files that work.
Ming works similar to image libraries such as GD, but then for Flash.
I don’t exactly know how much of Flash it actually supports, but from what I’ve seen it does most of the things that you could possibly be interested in.
On a side-note, ming doesn’t seem to work very well with PHP4. However, this is not a problem because the LLP servers use a technology that allows you to use PHP5 (or even 6) whenever you like.
You can see an on-site example of a ‘ming script’ here.
Or, if you are interested in seeing more cool stuff, there is a large list of examples here.
Anyway, I think ming is a really nice extra.
Edit: Forget what I just said about PHP5. Ming works fine with PHP4 too now. Thanks, Trel!
