   (PHP 4 <= 4.3.2)
   swf_closefile -- Close the current Shockwave Flash file

Description

   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 1. 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",
                         mysql_errno(), mysql_error()));
       }
       $stmt = "INSERT INTO swf_files (file) VALUES ('$data')";
       $sth = @mysql_query($stmt, $dbh);
       if (!$sth) {
           die (sprintf("Error [%d]: %s",
                         mysql_errno(), mysql_error()));
       }
       @mysql_free_result($sth);
       @mysql_close($dbh);
   }
   ?>
