no output on php page please help

[Pablos234]

Hi everyone.

I have a problem that I hope someone can help me with.

I have this code in my php file:

<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"swfobject.js\"></script>
	<script type=\"text/javascript\">
		var s1 = new SWFObject(\"player.swf\",\"ply\",\"328\",\"200\",\"9\",\"#FFFFFF\");
		s1.addParam(\"allowfullscreen\",\"true\");
		s1.addParam(\"allowscriptaccess\",\"always\");
		s1.addParam(\"flashvars=\"$content->file);
		s1.write(\"container\");
	</script>

But looking at the output source code I have this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
	<script type="text/javascript">
		var s1 = new SWFObject("player.swf","ply","328","200","9","#FFFFFF");
		s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
		s1.addParam("allowscriptaccess","always");
		s1.addParam("flashvars="../clips/view_video.php?viewkey=2e7daed3677ce8e9fe40&image=preview.jpg);
		s1.write("container");
	</script>

the 2 dots before the/clips/view_video.php is stopping the output of the video some reason, can anyone can point me in the right direction?.

Thanks in advance.

Are you sure that its not a problem with the way in which you are adding the flashvars parameter?

Looking at the script it would appear that you are not quoting the filepath parameter.

have you tried replacing the line:

s1.addParam(\"flashvars=\"$content->file);

with

s1.addParam(\"flashvars=\", \"$content->file\");

Hi.

Thanks for that I did what you said I changed the javascript plugin and put a single video in to play and it works.
So now I have the problem of why it wont give the correct location to the videos file IE:
flashvars:\"file\=$content->file\" };
That gives this in the output source:

../clips/view_video.php?viewkey=2e7daed3677ce8e9fe40

There are still 2 dots in the place of the full url, it should read:
http://mywebsite.com/vids/clips/view_video.php?viewkey=2e7daed3677ce8e9fe40.
The "$content" cannot be changed as its all through the script so it appears that "$content" is causing the problem.
Is it something to do with .htaccess not allowing the full url or something?.

Any suggestion would be helpful thanks.

If you use str_replace function to give the right location of your content:
$new_file=str_replace("../","",$content->file);

Or let's play with them till you find the right location with str_replace...

Hi how would I implement that in this code:

<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"http://www.mysite.com/vids/ufo.js\"></script><p id=\"player1\">
<a href=\"http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer\">
Get the Flash Player</a> to see this player.</p>
<script type=\"text/javascript\">
	var FO = {	
movie:\"mediaplayer.swf\",width:\"480\",height:\"360\"
,majorversion:\"7\",build:\"0\",bgcolor:\"#FFFFFF\",allowfullscreen:\"true\",autoplay:\"true\",
		flashvars:\"file\=$content->file\" };
	UFO.create(	FO, \"player1\");
</script>

Thankyou for the help.

[djjjozsi]

put the replace code into the first row of the while, wich fetch the datas from the $result.

// if ../clips/view_video.php is not a temporary part of these filenames....

// if your clips folder in www.mysite.com/subdirectory/

$new_link=str_replace("../clips/view_video.php","/subdirectory/clips/view_video.php",$content->file);
change $content->file into $new_link at the while

But create a backup copy of your original file 🙂

if you write a correct link to the clips folder, i write the replace parameters.

Where is the print or echo code ?

Hi djjjozsi.

ok this is how it is at the moment:

This is the complete page of the file that gets the video to show on another page:

<?
require_once 'tubeinc/config.php';

function insertclip($id)
{
	$id = $_GET["id"];
	$query = "SELECT file FROM clips WHERE id = '$id'";
	$result = mysql_query( $query );
	while ( $content = mysql_fetch_object( $result ) ) 

print( "<table width=\"500px\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#000000\"><tr><td align=\"center\" style=\"{padding: 2px;}\"></td></tr><tr><td><p id=\"player1\"><a href=\"http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer\">Get the Flash Player</a> to see this player.</p>
<script type=\"text/javascript\">
	var FO = {	movie:\"mediaplayer.swf\",width:\"480\",height:\"360\",majorversion:\"7\",build:\"0\",bgcolor:\"#FFFFFF\",allowfullscreen:\"true\",autoplay:\"true\",
		flashvars:\"file=$content->file\" };
	UFO.create(	FO, \"player1\");
</script></td></tr></table>" );
}

function insertcliplist($clip_cat_id) {

$clip_cat_id = $_GET["clip_cat_id"];

$query = "SELECT * FROM clips WHERE clip_cat_id ='$clip_cat_id'"; 
	$return = mysql_query($query);
	$num = mysql_numrows($return);

	echo "<table border='0'>";

    $query = "SELECT clipcol FROM config";
$content = mysql_fetch_object( mysql_query( $query ) );

 	$ncols = "$content->clipcol";
  	$i=0;
  	while($i < $num){

   	echo "<tr>";

    $ci=0;
    while($ci < $ncols){
     if($i < $num){
        $id = trim(mysql_result($return, $i, "id"));
        $clip_name = trim(mysql_result($return, $i, "clip_name"));
        $description = trim(mysql_result($return, $i, "description"));
        $query = "SELECT tubepage FROM config";
    $content = mysql_fetch_object( mysql_query( $query ) );

        if ($description == "") {

echo "<td><a href='".$content->tubepage."?id=".$id."&clip_cat_id=".$clip_cat_id."'>".$clip_name."</a></td>"; 
}else{
echo "<td><a href='".$content->tubepage."?id=".$id."&clip_cat_id=".$clip_cat_id."'>".$clip_name."&nbsp;(".$description.")</a></td>"; 
}
     }else{
            echo "<td>&nbsp;</td>";
          }

      $i++;
      $ci++;
    }

    echo "</tr>";

    if($i == 0){
      $i = $num;
    }
  }
  echo "</table>";
}

function insertcatlist() {

$query = "SELECT * FROM cat ORDER BY cat_name ASC";
$return = mysql_query($query);
$num = mysql_numrows($return);
    	echo "<table border='0'>";

if($num != 0){

    $query = "SELECT catcol FROM config";
$content = mysql_fetch_object( mysql_query( $query ) );

 	$ncols = "$content->catcol";

  $i=0;
  while($i < $num){

    echo "<tr>";

    $ci=0;
    while($ci < $ncols){
      if($i < $num){
        $clip_cat_id = trim(mysql_result($return, $i, "clip_cat_id"));
        $cat_name = trim(mysql_result($return, $i, "cat_name"));
        $query = "SELECT clippage FROM config";
        $content = mysql_fetch_object( mysql_query( $query ) );

  echo "<td><a href='".$content->clippage."?clip_cat_id=".$clip_cat_id."'>".$cat_name."</a></td>";
      }else{
        echo "<p>&nbsp;</p>";
      }
      $i++;
      $ci++;
    }
            echo "</tr>";

    if($i == 0){
      $i = $num;
    }
  }
}
      echo "</table>";

}

function insertupload() {

?>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="tubefiles/menu.js"></script>
<?
	$query = "SELECT uploadclips FROM config"; 
	$content = mysql_fetch_object( mysql_query( $query ) );
	echo "<a href=\"javascript:openpopupa()\">".$content->uploadclips."</a>";
}
?>

And this is the code on the output page without all the html as its not needed as its just html code:

<p class="center">
<table width="500px" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bgcolor="#000000"><tr><td align="center" style="{padding: 2px;}"></td></tr><tr><td><p id="player1"><a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">Get the Flash Player</a> to see this player.</p>
<script type="text/javascript">
	var FO = {	movie:"mediaplayer.swf",width:"480",height:"360",majorversion:"7",build:"0",bgcolor:"#FFFFFF",allowfullscreen:"true",autoplay:"true",
		flashvars:"file=../clips/view_video.php?viewkey=2e7daed3677ce8e9fe40" };
	UFO.create(	FO, "player1");
</script></td></tr></table><br class="spacer" />
<table border='0'><tr><td><a href='http://www.mysite.com/vids/video.php?id=2&clip_cat_id=2'>loose wheel</a></td></tr><tr><td><a href='http://www.mysite.com/vids/video.php?id=11&clip_cat_id=2'>Bull Butt</a></td></tr><tr><td><a href='http://www.mysite.com/vids/video.php?id=4&clip_cat_id=2'>hit the brakes&nbsp;(mad biker)</a></td></tr><tr><td><a href='http://www.mysite.com/vids/video.php?id=5&clip_cat_id=2'>panda snooze sneeze&nbsp;(panda snooze sneeze)</a></td></tr><tr><td><a href='http://www.mysite.com/vids/video.php?id=6&clip_cat_id=2'>cat massage</a></td></tr><tr><td><a href='http://www.mysite.com/vids/video.php?id=12&clip_cat_id=2'>one sexy babe</a></td></tr></table><br class="spacer" />
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="tubefiles/menu.js"></script>
<a href="javascript:openpopupa()">Upload Movies</a></p>

So as you can see the "$content->file" part is not giving the full url to the video file, and thats where the problem is- as it should read :

flashvars:"file=http:www.mysite.com/vids/clips/view_video.php?viewkey=2e7daed3677ce8e9fe40" };

I just cant seem to get my head around why it shows "../ " instead of the full url.

I apologise for being such a pain & hope you can come up with an solution to this.

Thanks again.

Lets have a look into the $content object:

function insertclip($id)
{
	$id = $_GET["id"];
	$query = "SELECT file FROM clips WHERE id = '$id'";
	$result = mysql_query( $query );
	while ( $content = mysql_fetch_object( $result ) ) 
             echo "Content is: $content->file <br>";
}

Hi igor.

Tried that and it throws out this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home2/myusername/public_html/vids/show.php on line 19

The original player that was used in this script was a windows mediaplayer which worked but I want a flash player instead, but here is the code for that player it may help:

<embed type=\"application/x-mplayer2\" pluginspage=\"http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/\" name=\"mediaplayer\" autostart=\"true\" width=\"468\" height=\"352\" transparentstart=\"1\" SHOWSTATUSBAR=\"0\" loop=\"0\" controller=\"true\" src=\"$content->file\" stretchToFit=\"true\" border=\"0\"></embed>

Thanks for helping.

[igorlopez]

Very strange, did you try with the insertclip function rewritten exactly as in my post or did you just add the echo statement?

Where is this insertclip function used and how does the file show.php look like, especially the first twenty lines?
We need to find out why you get this Parse error.
