How can I create embed links that are simple like youtube's

Hmmm, so what I you do...

You could make a subdomain and put all of the embed files in there, and then request all of the files from there.

First make a MySQL database and a table named files with two columns...id and url. Then you fill in the ids incrementing and the file urls in the url column.

Then make a file named index.php and then paste this in there:

PHP Code:

<?php

//DB CONNECT
//DB SELECT

$file = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM files WHERE id='$file'");
$result = mysql_fetch_array( $query );

header("Location: ".$result['url']);

?>

Then in your page:

<embed src="embeds.technologyforever.com/?1">

Talk to me some time maybe you could help me with this

This code still doesn't work

Ok, hold on a second. I want to get this straight. You want links like YouTube's, like this(its a dead link):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcV77WW


Then you want to use something like this:

PHP Code:

<?php
//this file is called "link.php" for reference

//get the id of link
$link_id = $_GET['id'];
//make the input secure so you are not vulnerable to hackers
$link_id = mysql_real_escape_string ( trim ( $link_id ) );

//Connect o your database and get the requested information
//DB CONNECT
//DB SELECT
$query = mysql_query ( "SELECT link_url FROM links WHERE link_id={$link_id}" );
$result = mysql_fetch_array ( $query );

//send that person to the page that is in the database
header( "Location: ".$result['link_url'] );
?>
