URL Sharing Helper

/ Published in: PHP

This is a quick & dirty helper for pumping out those annoying little link sharing URLS. I've kept it simple, so all it does is return a URL formatted for a particular service.

To use it, just pass a string of the service name to the helper followed by the title. This could definitely be taken to the next level by adding a parameter for the URL, but my needs were incompatible with such a feature.

<?php
 
	#
	#	URL Sharing Helper
	#				
 
		if ( ! function_exists('share' ))
		{
			function share($media, $title = '' )
			{
				$encoded_url = urlencode('http://yourdomain.com');
				$encoded_title = urlencode($title);
 
				if ( $media == 'twitter' ) return "http://twitter.com/home?status=$encoded_url";
