Okay, my turn to be berated and talked-down to. ;)
I'm trying to integrate PHP/SWF Charts
(http://www.maani.us/charts/index.php) into my stats reporting system
at work. I read the manual and saw how I can create an app/vendors
directory and put the code in there. I can then access code by doing
'vendor("foo")' and it will include foo.php in my script. The thing
I'm having problems with is how do I tell my app to use a *directory*
that is in teh app/vendors directory.
Here's how it's supposed to work:
You create a file called sample.php that looks like this:
<?php
//include charts.php to access the SendChartData function
include "charts.php";
SendChartData ();
?>
So, I created a controller/action pair to handle this
class GraphsController extends AppController
{
var $name = 'Graphs';
var $uses = NULL;
public function users()
{
// setup things for PHP/SWF Charts
vendor('charts');
SendChartData ();
}
}
Now, the file you want to output the graph into should have this in it:
<HTML>
<BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<?php
//include charts.php to access the InsertChart function
include "charts.php";
echo InsertChart ( "charts.swf", "charts_library", "sample.php" );
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Now, I've added the following code into the thml template I want the
graph to appear in:
vendor('charts');
echo InsertChart($html->image('charts.swf'), "charts_library",
$html->url('/graphs/users'));
"charts_library" is supposed to represent the location
/app/vendors/charts_library so the PHP/SWF code can find some support
stuff. How do I tell Cake where to find that directory?
