Hi,

I used to keep the list of movies I saw into a html database, but now, after
having learned org mode, I want to transform the database into a org mode file.

Example of org mode file:

| Domicile conjugal      | tt0065651 | 20 | 1970 | France     |
| Douze hommes en colère | tt0050083 | 20 | 1957 | Etats Unis |
| Élection               | tt0126886 | 20 | 1999 | Etats Unis |
| Elephant               | tt0363589 | 20 | 2003 | Etats Unis |
| Entre les murs         | tt1068646 | 20 | 2008 | France     |
| Ève                    | tt0042192 | 20 | 1950 | Etats Unis |
| Faust                  | tt0016847 | 20 | 1926 | Allemagne  |

I wish to ask you what possibilities exists for me to insert on the second
column the imdb entry, as easy as possible.

I wish to have a link to imdb web page, and to see only its id (as now).

If I tape every time [[http://.....id.html][ID]] is too much to type, and I can
make errors. I need to insert the id 2 times.

Could I define a template, like a function with 1 parameter, and call that
function that reads the id, and completes all link, or something like this ?

Are the templates useful for what I need here?

Apart from templates, are there any other possibilities to have a control over
the web link ?

Thanks in advance.

Alin
