Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE.

[strago]

$download_link = $tube->get('http://www.youtube.com/watch/v/' $_GET['url']);

 

Depending on if I use " or ' it spits out

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /public_html/index.php on line 56

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ':' in /public_html/index.php on line 56

 

 

 

$download_link = $tube->get($_GET['url']);

 

works if I wanted the new form URL to be like

 

hxxp://www.domain.com/index.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D9lp0IWv8QZY

 

though I wanna keep it short with

 

hxxp://www.domain.com/index.php?url=9lp0IWv8QZY

 

by having most of the URL in the script so I can do mod_rewrite.

$download_link = $tube->get('http://www.youtube.com/watch/v/'.$_GET['url']);

 

you need a dot

Thanks. That did it.

 

Is there any way to make it so that if you enter the full URL in the form, the part of the URL before the ID get's deleted?

 

$v = str_replace($v, "", "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=");

$download_link = $tube->get('http://www.youtube.com/watch?v='.$_GET['v']);

 

doesn't take it out.
