Popup link to embedded video

[dn]

Hi,

I'm a total newbie at php but I'm trying to find a script that does something similar to this:

 

To use: link to PlayVideo.php?playfile=yourvideofilehere.wmv

 

PlayVideo.php

<object id='mediaPlayer' width="600" height="534" 
      classid='CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95' 
      codebase='http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701'
      standby='Loading Microsoft Windows Media Player components...' 
      type='application/x-oleobject'>
      <param name='fileName' value="<?php echo $_GET['playfile']; ?>" />
      <param name='animationatStart' value='true' />
      <param name='transparentatStart' value='true' />
      <param name='autoStart' value="true" />
      <param name='showControls' value="true" />
      <param name='loop' value="false" />      
    </object>

 

 

 

 

instead of "yourvideofilehere.wmv", I'd like to insert an embed code of a video

 

Something like this:

 

PlayVideo.php?playfile=<embed src="http://www.veoh.com/veohplayer.swf?permalinkId=v16843594xRYratyY&id=anonymous&player=videodetailsembedded&videoAutoPlay=0" allowFullScreen="true" width="410" height="341" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>

 

So basically, I just need the script to take the code after "playfile=" and insert it in the body of the popup where the video would be embedded.

 

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

ah thats what his reply jsut said its client side not server side, php is serverside only (with ajax as an exception) but i dont think that will help you here.
