We need a solution that runs on a webserver (LAMP) and is able to
- read data (only text and images)from a mySQL database
- fill this data into a flash (swf) template (either one with several frames or a single one).
- combine the several final flash files into 1 big flash file, so that each flash (=chapter) is visible a) for a predefined number of seconds or b) each chapter is shown when the user presses a certain key on the keyboard.
- the process of the generation of flash files is completely databased: Flash-templates can have up to 5 pages, each with one place holder for text, picture and video. Within each template the exchange of texts and images is done with one transition effect, like fading or venetian blind effect.
- changes from one template to another are done also with the same type of effect.
- the solution must be able do do the assembly of the flash files automatically at certain intervals and/or by being triggered via php or cron-job.
- the flash files must be named and stored on a certain directory according to the database entry. If a wget-utility must be used to save the .swf-files thats okay with us.
Important: All data must be included in the final flash-file (.swf) NOT dynamically loaded!
- The process of generation:
1. The mySQL database consists of one table with the following entries:
customer-id | Password | Template-filename | Text1 | Text2 | Text3 | Text4 | Text5 | Image1 | Image2 | Image3 | Image4 | Image5 | Video1 | Video2 | Video3 | Video4 | Video5
The database entries images and videos are filenames.
2. The application ist started with customer-id and password and must select all rows with this customer-id and pw. It reads the template-filename, loads the template flash-file and replaces the placeholders of the flash template with text and images or videos files.
3. Now, the template-filename from the next matched database row is chosen and processed as well.
4. When all rows and flash files are completed, the application must combine the single flashs into one big static flash file, and save it as customer-id.swf.
Important: All data must be included in the final flash-file (.swf) NOT dynamically loaded!
Platform:
LAMP Webserver
Also, we ask for references for similar projects involving flash and databases that the coder has done in the past, before we make our decision.
Timeline: project deadline is 20.02.2004.
We provide a webserver and install software on coder's demand.
Web, Flash, Database, MySQL, Other (Database)
We may choose www.rentacoder.com for money transfer and project surveillance.
Dear Laszlo developers: Please reply with a price quote.
