Beginner to PHP

I am very very new to PHP. I have a situation that I know can be resolved by PHP - I just have no idea how.

I have several Windows Media audio files that are going to be played in an embeded player in a pop-up window. The thing is - instead of having an html page for each audio file - can I have 1 html page with all the object embed info, and then when they click the link, that determines which file is played.

I'm sure it's not complicated. It's just launching the window, having some kind of "include" function where the filename goes and using PHP to tell it what the filename is.

If anyone can tell me how this could be done it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Well..a little theory here...

Let's say you had a link that looked like this:

<a href="popup.php?file=audio1.wmp">

you are now passing a variable called $file in the script popup.php and you can access it like so:

echo $file;

would print whatever is contained within $file to the browser.

I hope that gives you a general idea. If you have a more specific question, please ask...

Try something like this to actually play each song. Make sure you change "name_of_song"

<?php

if(isset($song)) {
header("Content-type: application/x-wman");
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename="$song"n");
header("Content-transfer-encoding: binaryn");
exit; }
else {
include("../header.php");
?>
