How to insert php into template?

[ajhalls]

So I really would love to search, but..... Searching for php on the site is a death sentance for the number of results. I am trying to figure out how to take the link like this:

<a href="./videosdisplay.php?file=7.3-Electrochemistry-Part-3.flv">

And insert the variable name into this code on the next page:

<object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' width='470' height='320' id='video1' name='video1'>
<param name='movie' value='http://www.coursesaver.com/jw/player.swf'>
<param name='allowfullscreen' value='true'>
<param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'>
<param name='wmode' value='transparent'>
<param name='flashvars' 
value='streamer=rtmp://coursesaver.com:1935/Chad&amp;file={INSERTVARIABLEHERE}&amp;provider=rtmp'>
<embed
  id='video2'
  name='video2'
  src='http://www.coursesaver.com/jw/player.swf'
  width='470'
  height='320'
  bgcolor='#000000'
  allowscriptaccess='always'
  allowfullscreen='true'
  flashvars=' value="streamer=rtmp://coursesaver.com:1935/Chad
&amp;file={INSERTVARIABLEHERE}&amp;provider=rtmp'
/></object>

I tried a couple php codes I found, but they seem to be ignored and not sure where to go from here. Any help is appreciated
