How to generate dynamic links.

Hello,

 

I was wondering if I can get some help or direction on how to use php to dynamically generate links according to artist names or titles. I want to provide my customers with more information about my product offers by directing them to websites with more information.

 

An example would be here (look at the 'Discover More Information About Pink (Artist)' section at about midpage ):

 

http://www.tower.com/funhouse-pink-cd/wapi/112471338

 

Would that be done by api, php or can it be achieved by some kind of quick search string?

 

Thanks for any help provided.

I used the one by FWR_Media 2.1d UPDATED worked like a charm for me.

 

Follow the instructions.

 

It uses ModRewrite and PHP.

 

Thanks for the fast reply. What I really need is some code that will generate link to the different social websites using artist names or product titles.

 

For example, if I want to give my visitors a link to Pink's myspace page, what kind of code would I use?

 

I guess what I'm looking for is some kind of quick search feature that would automatically generate a link by keywords.

 

When I go to myspace.com and search for 'Pink', this is the link in the addressbar http://searchservice.myspace.com/index.cfm...p;submit=Search Notice this part contains 'pink' AllMySpace&qry=pink.

 

Hopefully I've clearly explain the goal I'm trying to achieve.

 

Thanks again.
