#8489 — Dynamically change video URLs

I am new to PHP and Javascript, but I need to develop a website that hosts video files. 

I want to have one page that lists all the video with a thumbnail, title (which is clickable), and short description. But, I'm confused as to how I would make each link dynamically direct to the correct video URL/file (using the video.js HTML5 player).

And I would like the video URLs to be placed in an external file and referenced in each link.

Is it possible to do this using PHP and Javascript? If so, can I please get help?

If you have a concrete question to PHP code you can ask us.

But there is no "how to teach programming in 10 lines".

What he's saying is this is user-to-user help.  If you have a specific 
question about PHP, this is the place to ask.  If you aren't sure 
whether you need html, javascript, php or something else, you have more 
basic problems this newsgroup won't be able to help you with.

You need to get a basic understanding of the technologies involved and 
what gets done where.  Then figure out what you need to do and try it 
out.  If it comes down to a specific PHP problem you've tried to resolve 
but can't, then come back here.

P.S. Please quote the relevant part(s) of the message you are replying 
to.  The majority of the active users here use usenet readers, not 
google groups and the previous message may or may not be available.

Thanks.

Merely looking for help/guidance in achieving the task I want, from developers who know the language and what they're doing...that's all. But, the previous two posts answered my question. I've looked elsewhere.

I am sure if you produce some html to display at least one link (not 
dynamic) the folks here might be able to help you do the same with PHP. 
  But you need to take the first step.
