Can anyone tell me what the fortescue is wrong with this? From the command line it appears to work just fine. Yeah all the table guff is incomplete but the links, and or the "video" seems to look ok if you run with or without any parameters.

But she's half dead inside apache. It's not finding any of the commandline parameters just stuck in no parameter loop.

Ta, Spec

<?php

$argc = count($argv);
if($argc > 2 or $argc <2){
$directory = "./";
$phpfiles = glob($directory . "*.mp4");

foreach($phpfiles as $phpfile){
$file = basename($phpfile);
echo "<tr><td colspan=2><center>";
echo '<a href="test.php?'.$file.'">'.$file.'</a>';
}

} else {

echo "<video controls width=320>";
echo "<source src=\".basename($argv[1])\".mp4\"> type=\"video/mp4\">";
echo "</video>";

$phpfiles = glob("*.mp4");
foreach($phpfiles as $phpfile){
$file = basename($phpfile);
echo "<tr><td colspan=2><center>";
echo '<a href="test.php?'.$file.'">'.$file.'</a>';
}
}

Howdy,

Apache doesnt received arguments - as it invokes the script with web based enviroment variables:

https://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.argv.php

You probably need one of the other variables: https://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php

Makes sense, I have a vague recollection of using a $GET or something similar, but for the life of me I can't recall what I used it in or how to. Thinking harder just now it might have been in the Pineapple search script... I'll have to go and have a peek at it.

Well you were right, and it is $_GET that holds the parameters.. in some weird assembly. I have a rough version of said script in place and functional. But it is butt ugly, and not doing any input checking, so it could get ugly, but for today its enough. :)
