custom video plugin/function needed

I need a bit of a plugin, could be function (to paste in functions.php) which would in place of tag like:

[video width="400" height="300"]source url here[/video]

inject embed code for videoplayer.swf?width=400&height=400=src

I have a swf, I need only content parsing function.

thanks,
tk

For this shortcode: [video width="400" height="300"]source url here[/video]

Try adding this to your functions.php:



// [video width='' height='']content[/video]

function video_func($atts, $content = null ) {

	extract(shortcode_atts(array(

		'width' => '400', //default, if not defined

		'height' => '300', //default, if not defined

	), $atts));



	// use $content for the video source

	// use {$width} for the width -- with the brackets

	// use {$height} for the height -- with the brackets



        $output = "your embed code with your new variables":



	return $output;

}

add_shortcode('video', 'video_func');
