Embed Flash with PHP.

Its been a while. I figured I should put something up. Here is a class I wrote to put Flash on a page with PHP. Enjoy.

I felt inspired to go back to my animation roots for an evening.

When I heard that Disney is reacquiring the Star Wars Franchise I felt inspired to edit the Imperial March to Steamboat Wilie.  Enjoy.

Web Page Update

Updated the Fractured Nations page.  I now have a timeline till go live.

E-mail attachments with php

      So the boss wanted to get a bunch of stats out of the database on a daily basis.  Our server guy has been doing it for her, and he complains that it takes time, which it does.  And he does not pull all the data she wants because some of it needs to be cleaned before it will display nicely.  So I figured it would be better done with a php script set to execute in a daily CRON.  I got put to this because she really wanted  the data that was dirty.  I could see my way threw the project but I had to figure out one or two things.  The main being how do you sent an email with an attachment with code.  So the next few posts will be addressing e-mailing with code, and data cleaning.

Weird Dream Last Night

So my wife and I have been looking at house plans with the intent of building one day.  And I have been scripting a lot.  I don't know exactly what triggered it but I had a dream we were building the house and I was laying out the floor with CSS and Javascript.  I made it self cleaning.  To bad it can't really be done this way.

<div id="kitchenFloor" class="Pergo Mahogany WideStrips" onwalk="selfClean()"></div>

function selfClean()
{
     var floor = house.getElementById("kitchenFloor");
     if(floor.mud == true)
     {
          //remove Mud
          floor.mud = false;
     }
}

HTML form element class object in PHP

Form Elements as easy as

$elem = new FormElement("yourElement", "Hello World Element");
echo $elem->HTML();

This Will print
--------------------------
<div class=''>Hello World Element</div>
<input id="yourElement" name="yourElement" type="text" form="form" onblur="Validate('yourElement')"/>
<div name='err' class='error'></div>
--------------------------
The last div named 'err' can be used to display errors from the validation.

HTML Form Class Object

I got your form right here.

$form = new form("myform");
echo $form->HTML();

This will print
----------------------
<form id="myform" name="myform" action="index.php" method="post">
</form>
---------------------


<?php
/**
 * Description of form
 * HTML form Object

class form extends HTML
{
    public function __construct($name = "form", $action = "index.php", $method = "post")
    {

        parent::addValue("id", $name);
        parent::addValue("name", $name);
        parent::addValue("action", $action);
        parent::addValue("method", $method);
