Somehow, it attracted me, and gave me a<br \/>\ndriving force to try it immediately. I tried to read quickly to<br \/>\nfind things I&#8217;d be able to download. I downloaded the source<br \/>\ncode, the examples, and the precompiled PHP module.<br \/>\nWhen I don&#8217;t have extra time, sometimes I think, &#8220;why compile<br \/>\nit myself if someone else has compiled it for me?&#8221; Therefore, I<br \/>\nfetched the compressed file, uncompressed it into a server<br \/>\nrunning Debian GNU\/Linux 2.2.<\/div>\n<div class=\"articlePara\">\nAccording to the installation howto, what I&#8217;d need to do was<br \/>\njust download the PHP module and put the uncompressed<br \/>\nphp_ming.so to PHP module directory. PHP module directory?<br \/>\nWhere is it? Aha, simply run <code class=\"example\">php-config<br \/>\n--extension-dir<\/code>. &#8220;Piece of cake&#8221;, I thought.<\/div>\n<div class=\"articlePara\">\nThe last<br \/>\nstep was adding <code class=\"example\">extension=php_ming.so<\/code>. I tried the<br \/>\nsample code (you&#8217;ll find it later in this article) &#8212; it didn&#8217;t<br \/>\nwork. My intuition told me that it might be because I was using<br \/>\nDebian along with the stable packages I apt-got (&#8230; err&#8230;<br \/>\napt-get in past tense) install. Well, I was right. So, let&#8217;s<br \/>\ndiscuss about how to do it in Debian.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; padding:15px; color:#17AAF3\">\n<div style=\"background-color:#B6E5FC; font-size:16px; margin-top:1px; padding:1px 4px 1px 4px; color:#000; font-style:bold; float:left;\">1<\/div>\n<div style=\"float:left; font-size:16px; color:#FF7A22; padding:2px 2px 2px 2px; \">| <\/div>\n<div style=\"float:left; padding:2px 4px 2px 4px;\"><a class=\"pageNumber\" href=\"suyoto200108094658.html?page=2\">2<\/a> <\/div>\n<div style=\"float:left; font-size:16px; color:#FF7A22; padding:2px 2px 2px 2px; \">| <\/div>\n<div style=\"float:left; padding:2px 4px 2px 4px;\"><a class=\"pageNumber\" href=\"suyoto200108099ba9.html?page=3\">3<\/a> <\/div>\n<div style=\"float:left; padding:2px;\"><a class=\"paginationPageLink\" href=\"suyoto200108094658.html?page=2\">Next Page \u00bb<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One day, I found a site about Ming, a SWF output library and PHP module.
