Link Preview, Parse Web Page for Video, Thumbnails, Meta
Posted: Thu Oct 25, 2007 9:17 pm
I was wondering if anyone has used or seen any good scripts which can do the above...that is, when the user enters a link - the server parses it and determines if it has images or a video and spits out options such as title, description and thumbnail. This is used on Facebook.com in their Posted Items application.
I'm not really interested in how to do it - since that is relatively straightforward; just looking to save time - if there is a pre-written script out there!
scoured the web and haven't found anything which does exactly what I've described.
