.

Why not use the Metadata fields already in the Item parameters settings?

How would this be different?

I am using a php script (and rss flux) in the article to show informations on the page
So on a page call "film of the week" you have the list and then if you select one film, you have the info for that film... and at that moment i would like to put in meta the specific info related to this film

i am searching where do i have to insert my data ...

See our FAQ article on how to retrieve the data of item inside a variable e.g. $item

then you could use
$item->title // title
$item->metakey // meta keywords
$item->metadesc // meta description
// etc

and output them inside the META keywords or META description of your page

thanks for that answer

maybe i didn't explain well
i would like to do the other way : from outside -> to the meta

In fact i would use info from outside (an xml flux) to put inside the meta of a flexicontent page...

This is a general Joomla Question:
you could use:

Code:

$document = & JFactory::getDocument();
$document->setMetadata('description', $item->metadesc . $extra_desc);
$document->setMetadata('keywords', $item->metakey . $extra_keywords);
$document->setMetaData('title', $item->title . $extra_title);
$document->setMetaData('author', $item->author . $extra_author);

Please read joomla documentation
