Check string in url and write html according

What language can be used to check a string or a link then write html accordingly? This is while a user loads the page. I need this so I can check the link if it .mp4 or .flv before I load the video player. If it has the included video format then it will load the code for the player if not it will display a message instead.

"if not it will display a message instead."

What is normally done in pure HTML is something like this:

<embed src="video.flv">
We're sorry, but your browser does not have the necessary plug-ins to display FLV video files.
</embed>

The error message is always there, but if the video actually loads then it is covered up.

PHP, perl, python, asp, asp.net, and many other languages can be used. By far the most common server side language is PHP. It makes server-side coding relatively easy.
