trouble with diff. sizes in tag cloud

[Free WordPress Themes]

Hi I have a bit of problems with the calculation of the diff. font-size in my tagcloud:

in this metod I create the array and also the average from all value:

Code:

<?php
function build_tag_array() {
$result = $this->get_records();
$i = 0;
$counting = 0;
while ($obj = mysql_fetch_object($result)) {
$tags[$i]['name'] = $obj->tag_name;
$tags[$i]['clicks'] = $obj->tag_clicks;
$counting = $counting + $tags[$i]['clicks'];
$i++;
}
$this->avg_val = $counting/$i;
mysql_free_result($result);
shuffle($tags);
return $tags;
}

and I create the tags with this code: (using a loop)

Code:

<?php
function create_element($tag_array) {
$diff_size = $this->max_size - $this->min_size;
$size = $tag_array['clicks']/$this->avg_val*$diff_size;
$size = round($size, 1);
$tag = stripslashes($tag_array['name']);
if ($tag_array['name'] != $this->current_tag) {
return "<span style=\"font-size:".$size."em;\"><a href=\"".$this->page."?".$this->qs_var."=".rawurlencode($tag)."\">".$tag."</a></span>\n";
} else {
return "<span style=\"font-size:".$size."em;\">".$tag."</span>\n";
}
}

is this the right way to calculate the size values?

the max_size and min_size are the minimum and maximum clicks value?

no the max and min font size

I would use another way to do this. First you need three variables :

$maxFontSize
$clicks -> Clicks from the active tag
$maxClicks -> The higher clicks value from all tags

In that case the size of a tag would be :

ceil(($clicks * $maxFontSize) / $maxClicks);

thanks I will try that, but I want also a minimum size, maybe I should do that afterwards:

if size < 0.8 size = 0.8...
