"echo" means "print" so "echo $url" means print the variable $url. I am supposing you just need to replace <? echo $url ?> with wherever your video is.
As far as embedding the video into your webpage, just search google for some example code and figure it out from that.
HI all!
I have this piece of code from flashvideo.html:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="300" wmode="transparent"
data="flvplayer.swf?file=<? echo $url; ?>&autoStart=false">
<param name="movie" value="flvplayer.swf?file=<? echo $url; ?>&autoStart=false" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>
that is called from this other html page, which "creates" a pop up video player:
<a onclick="window.open('video/flashvideo.html?url=08-01-05512K.flv','','toolbar=no,location=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=440,height=365')" href="#">
<img src="images/flash_icon.jpg" width="26" height="25" border="0"></a>
------------------------------------
but I don't want a pop up video player. I want a video player, as when you embed a video from youtube. So I was trying to "match" the 2 pieces of code as I know that one calls the other... I assume that to flashvideo.html I just have to put the url instead of a php snippet calling the file... but I can not do it! I don't know php and I am not quite sure where it ends!
I am sure that for anybody that know a little php it is a silly question...
Whoever can help me I will really apreciate it!
