I have a site and i want to put video's and animations on it, i asked my friend who is really good with computers if he could help me make a comment php thing, he told me that first i what i have to do is make a script where whenever i upload a video or animation to my site, IT AUTOMATICALLY EMBEDS IT. HERE IS WHAT MY FRIEND SAID:Ruvio: ok listen to this,,,Me: okRuvio: u have 10000 videosRuvio: and u want to embed all of them oon seperate pages for ur websiteRuvio: that would take daysMe: .....Ruvio: but you make a scirpt that , when in the "videoupload" fold,er , the embeds are generated for uRuvio: so when u get new materal u dont hhave to update constantlyRuvio: google aroudn for folder manipulating with php---------------------------------So thats what he told me to do and im a big newb at php, and i was wondering if anybody knew of how to do this or any ways to help me understand what my friend is asking me to do, OR if u know of something THAT does what my friends telling me to do.

neylitalo Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 I'd suggest doing it something like this: Have one PHP file, but have it take info from $_GET and use that to generate the embed tag. Something like this:[code]<?php$fileName = $_GET['video'];echo "<embed src='videos/".$fileName.".avi'>";?>[/code]I don't know the syntax for the embed tags, but you'd have to do something like that for the "src" attribute. Go nuts! Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/10294-help-with-mediaphp/#findComment-38391 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ober Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 If you post a more detailed question in PHP Help, you'll probably get some more help. And I'd suggest reading some tutorials on the main site (http://www.phpfreaks.com) if you're completely new to PHP and server-side scripting.
