I been trying to pull a value from a Param Name that is loaded

  • 0

I been trying to pull a value from a Param Name that is loaded by a Js.

The php is what pulling it.

Any advice would be taken gracefully.

I want $movie to become the value from the

<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com..."

In other words

value="http://www.youtube.com..."`

Needs to go into $movie

I have tried to “include(“Api_PlusLoad.js”)
But still no luck

Php Code:

<?php

    $movie=$_POST['movie'];

    $con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","student");

    mysql_select_db("tvid", $con);

    $sql="INSERT INTO tv (userid, favorites) VALUES ('2', '$movie');";

    mysql_query( $sql, $con ) or trigger_error( mysql_error( $con ), E_USER_ERROR );

    echo"";

    mysql_close($con);
?>

The Param

<object width="640" height="360">
    <param name="movie"             value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FavUpD_IjVY&hl=en_GB&feature=player_embedded&version=3">        </param>
    <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param>
<embed  src="http://www.youtube.com/v/FavUpD_IjVY&hl=en_GB&feature=player_embedded&version=3"     type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always"     width="640" height="360"></embed>
</object>

Major problem I am facing is that I want to add the value of the Param Name Movie.
which is below.

I want it to take value (beside it) and add to a database which is defined in the PHP.

$movie is the variable that references the ‘movie’ variable which is the Param Name.

With the code I currently have, all it does is insert a blank into the database.

    <?php
$sourcestring='<object width="640" height="360">
    <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FavUpD_IjVY&hl=en_GB&feature=player_embedded&version=3">        </param>
    <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param>
<embed  src="http://www.youtube.com/v/FavUpD_IjVY&hl=en_GB&feature=player_embedded&version=3"     type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always"     width="640" height="360"></embed>
</object>';

preg_match_all('/<param name="movie" value="(.*)">/',$sourcestring,$matches);

echo "<pre>".print_r($matches,true);
?>
