PHP script for a real time clock

PHP script for a real time clock for picture objects in ActiveWorlds

Usage description :

====== On your server ======

Copy this PHP script to any folder on your server, I used "oct31.de/dyn/clock.php"

You probably have to modify the texture path in line 8 of the script before you upload it!

Some PHP installations (XITAMI?) seem to issue warnings about missing variables if the command line argument isn't present, in this case add the following line to your script, somewhere near the header() function :
error_reporting (21);

====== In AW ======

Create a zpict2.rwx (2 examples) :

 create picture oct31.de/dyn/clock.php?typ=24&cc=FFFFFF&hc=0000ff update=600

 create picture oct31.de/dyn/clock.php?img=avface2bl&hs=5 update=600

The script has several arguments, all are optional :

Description	Example	Default	Comment
Time difference to VRT	`vr=-3`	`vr=0`	-
Flag for a 24 hours face	`typ=24`	`typ=12`	-
Hand width modifier	`hs=15`	`hs=0`	This value adds to the default width
Frame color (hex)	`bc=d06060`	`fc=000000`	not used when img= is specified
Face color (hex)	`bc=aaaa00`	`cc=ffffe0`	not used when img= is specified
Hour hand color (hex)	`bc=123456`	`hc=d01010`	see img=
Minute hand color (hex)	`bc=123456`	`mc=f03030`	see img=
Text color (hex)	`bc=000000`	`nc=800000`	see img=
Texture from ObjectPath (best 256x256)	`img=avface2bl`	no texture	Depending on the version of the installed GD library on your server, the script cannot allocate colors when the image is created from a JPG file with too many colors, so all color options might only paint in the nearest color if img= is used.
