Dear PHP Documentation Team,
In your documentation about the ming library, there is a detail about two important functions, that
is only mentioned by a user in the comments section, but should be pointed out in a more official
manner in the documentation itself. This affects the following pages:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.swfmovie.save.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.swfmovie.output.php
instead of
void swfmovie->save ( string filename)
you should put it like
void swfmovie->save ( string filename [, int compressionlevel] )
and
instead of
void swfmovie->output ( void)
you should put
void swfmovie->output ( [int compressionlevel] )
The compression level can be a value between 0 and 9, defining the swf compression similar to gzip
compression.
This detail about the ming library (which exists at least since version 0.3) can hardly be found
anywhere on the internet, since it is not even documented by the creators of the library. But, I
assure you, it would matter a lot to programmers using ming, who don't know about this yet and
think you just have to take the disadvantage of 0 compression.
If you need to verify this hint before altering the documentation, I would be glad if I could help
you in any way (example scripts, results, ...).
In any case, thanks a lot for your great, unrivaled documentation!! Keep up the good work!
Bye!
