How to : Create a simple url shortener script is a few minutes
27Hello all,
First let’s explain the basics of what we are trying to do.
We’ll build a script that will replace any type of url to a tiny url so it’s easier to post or be untraceable.
For example this *long* google maps url
http://maps.google.fr/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=fr&geocode=&q=white+house&sll=46.75984,1.738281&sspn=10.178118,28.54248&ie=UTF8&z=15&iwloc=A
could become
http://your.site/v/12345
you can check it out here : http://www.djpate.com/portfolio/shortURL/create.php
and download the source code here
This is not very hard to do but it’s nice tutorial for beginners.
