flat file php conversions
conversion of flash-driven php run functions to flat text files. the text files are now located in /uploaded/text/foldername where folder name is the name of the action in the php run (ex. action=flashxgameinfo for each game info text file)
types of flat files so far:
- creates (saved as text files by createtypeid):
- createtypeinfo
- enginechoices
- engines (saved as text files by engineid)
- engineinfo – returns engine swf url
- games (saved as text files by gameid, in subfolders by 1000)
- flashxgameinfo
- also uses engineinfo

the shell, create and f425 are updated to support these text changes.
