     PHP offers the ability to create Shockwave Flash files via Paul
     Haeberli's libswf module.
    </para>
    <note>
     <para>
      SWF support was added in PHP 4 RC2.
     </para>
     <para>
      The libswf does not have support for Windows. The development of
      that library has been stopped, and the source is not available
      to port it to another systems.
     </para>
     <para>
      For up to date SWF support take a look at the
      <link linkend="ref.ming">MING</link> functions.

     You need the libswf library to compile PHP with support for this
     extension. You can download libswf at <ulink

     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:
