At the expense of sounding ignorant... How do I add that extension to PHP? I looked through the example code, and I get the idea of what's happening, but I don't know how to add it to my server (I use shared hosting, though I have shell access). Does it need to be built into a *.so or *.dll and added to the PHP.ini file? If so, how do I build it? In short, what next?
