liz –

you can simply copy/paste this block of code inside of the

and it should work right out of the box. just cut-paste the example URL to whatever you want.

be sure to check out his php-IMAP interface too – its pretty awesome!

Total noob question, but where does the code go exactly? Above every php file?

Works really nice, Thanks…

I’m combining this with the Google QR Code API to generate qr images for a shopping cart I am developing for a school project…

Nice job, Dave.
It works as a charm.

Did you notice TinyURL re-assigns the same short-url on duplicate URLs? (which is the behaviour I needed, indeed!)

hi fellows
first of all this is a great post, and i will include this to my website, but there’s a little problem this function only works with an url with the next format “http://www.xxx.com” and with this kind of one “http://www.xxx.com/xxx.php”, what do you suggest me to solve this!

i summon all the internet gurus!!!
