do these exist?

Hey is there anything that exists like this?..Like an HDMI splitter, but
it has 2 hdmi ins and one hdmi out.

I have 2 hdmi ports on my tv.. and 3 things that use HDMi..
so i always have to go behind my tv and unplug my PS3 if i want to use the dvd player ect..
is ther like any little box i can plug themboth into, then have one cord going out to my tv?
so i dont have to keep switching the cords?

isearched for HDMI spliters, but kept finding things that have on ein and 2 or more outs to go to many displays..
but i want the opposite if that.

HDMI hub, shouldn't be hard to find. Even walmart carries them around here.

I don't use one since I have 3 HDMI ports on my TV and 3 HDMI devices, but I believe you have a couple of choices.

Either an amp/receiver that has a built in HDMI switcher or a standalone HDMI switcher.

Here are a few standalone devices from monoprice that people say work well.
2x1 manual - $28.93
2x1 w/Equalizer and Remote - $79.06
5x1 w/Equalizer and Remote - $112.73

Sure, I have one for S-Video that I used to use for my tivo, xbox, gamecube, and ps2.

Like monkeydust said, they do. You can find a switchbox for pretty much every kind of video connection there is. The more exotic ones are going to be more expensive. An S-Video switchbox should be pretty cheap.

My VGA switchbox ran me around $75. VGA is analog so I didn't want to cheap out with some $15 manual switch junkbox. Mine is controlled electronically and requires an external power source. Works great and no ghosting YMMV with switchboxes for other analog connections. If you run into issues with a cheapy then pony up the dough for something a little more robust.
