swf_closefile

Close the current Shockwave Flash file (PHP 4 <= 4.3.2)
void swf_closefile ( [int return_file ] )

Close a file that was opened by the swf_openfile() function. If the return_file parameter is set then the contents of the SWF file are returned from the function.

Example 882. Creating a simple flash file based on user input and outputting it and saving it in a database

<?php

// The $text variable is submitted by the
// user

// Global variables for database
// access (used in the swf_savedata() function)
$DBHOST = "localhost";
$DBUSER = "sterling";
$DBPASS = "secret";

swf_openfile ("php://stdout", 256, 256, 30, 1, 1, 1);

   
swf_definefont (10, "Ligon-Bold");
       
swf_fontsize (12);
       
swf_fontslant (10);
   
   
swf_definetext (11, $text, 1);
   
   
swf_pushmatrix ();
       
swf_translate (-50, 80, 0);
       
swf_placeobject (11, 60);
   
swf_popmatrix ();

   
swf_showframe ();
 
   
swf_startdoaction ();
       
swf_actionstop ();
   
swf_enddoaction ();

$data = swf_closefile (1);

$data ?
 
swf_savedata ($data) :
 die (
"Error could not save SWF file");

// void swf_savedata (string data)
// Save the generated file a database
// for later retrieval
function swf_savedata ($data)
{
   global
$DBHOST,
         
$DBUSER,
         
$DBPASS;
   
   
$dbh = @mysql_connect ($DBHOST, $DBUSER, $DBPASS);

   if (!
$dbh) {
       die (
sprintf ("Error [%d]: %s",

   }

$sth = @mysql_query ($stmt, $dbh);

   if (!

       die (
