I know these are the two most popular ones. http://www.sharethis.com/ https://www.addthis.com/get/sharing But I find them slow to load on a page. So I am asking, is there a better solution to this that won't be slow?

Hi. I am trying to create a simple video file server. I finished the skeleton of it but when it came to creating the multitude of pages I realized that there could be an easier way to do it. I started out basically getting the folder names in the server then printing them on the page. <?php $dirs = glob("*", GLOB_ONLYDIR); echo '<ul>'; foreach($dirs as $dir) { $forbidden_folders = array("not4u", "ignore", Styles); $filename = str_replace($forbidden_folders, '', $dir); if (!empty($filename)) { echo '<li><a href="'.$dir.'">'.$dir.'</a></li>'; } } echo '</ul>' ?> Then I created in each of the folders with files a php file with this code: <?php function date_sort_desc($a, $b) { preg_match('/\w+ \d{4}/', $a, $matches_a); preg_match('/\w+ \d{4}/', $b, $matches_b); $timestamp_a = strtotime($matches_a[0]); $timestamp_b = strtotime($matches_b[0]); if ($timestamp_a == $timestamp_b) return 0; return $timestamp_a < $timestamp_b; } $files = array(); $dir = opendir('.'); while(false != ($file = readdir($dir))) { if(($file != ".") and ($file != "..") and ($file != "index.php")) { $files[] = $file; } } natsort($files); $i = 0; foreach($files as $file) { $i++; $string = str_replace("TV Show Name S1 E$i - ", '' , $file); echo '<div><a href="../Discriptions/'.$file.'.php">'.basename($string, '.m4v').'</a></div><br>'; } ?> This opens up a php file with the same file name as the file to be played containing the episode's thumbnail and description. That file then contains a link pointing back to the real file. The problem here is that I'd have to make a new php file for every file in my collection. I'm wondering if there's somehow a way to simplify all of this.
