I'm looking for a way to combine this working script with another check: request uri ?=en or ?=nl. I need this because a php include according to the active language cookie (nl or en) doesn't change immediately after you press the language button. The buttons bring you to [].php?=en - which in fact just refreshes the page. To see the php include in the correct language, you need to refresh the page one more time. Thats a problem. Can anybody help me?
<?php
if( $_COOKIE['lang'] == "nl"){
include ('statement_nl.php');
}
else{
include ('statement_en.php');
}
?>
EDIT:
After a few hours of puzzling I found a way to make it work:
<?php
if( $_COOKIE['lang'] == "nl"){
include ('statement_nl.php'); }
else if (isset($_GET["lang"]) AND ($_GET["lang"]=="nl")) {
include ('statement_nl.php'); }
else if (isset($_GET["lang"]) AND ($_GET["lang"]=="en")) {
include ('statement_en.php'); }
else{
include ('statement_en.php'); }
?>

I use nuBuilder 4. When a user is logged in and refreshes the page (e.g. by hitting F5) he gets logged out.
I read that session_start(); needs to be at the very beginning of the code. But that didn't help.
index.php starts with this code:
(https://github.com/steven-copley/nubuilder4/blob/master/index.php)
<?php
require_once('nuchoosesetup.php');
require_once('nuindexlibs.php');
if ( !$_SESSION['nubuilder_session_data']['PLUGIN'] ) {
require_once('nustandalonesetuplibs.php');
nuStandaloneImportNewDB();
}
if ( $_SESSION['nubuilder_session_data']['PLUGIN'] && !isset($_SESSION['nubuilder_session_data']['SESSION_ID']) ) {
require_once('nuwordpresssetuplibs.php');
nuCheckWPUser();
}
require_once('nusystemupdatelibs.php');
nuMigrateSQL();
?>
Unfortunately I don't know PHP sessions so well and don't know where to change what. I'm grateful for hints.
This may help you. I had similar problem with calling session.
if (!session_id()) {
session_start();
} else {
// your code
}
I"m loading a file in start of PHP. I have declared some activity and assign them to buttons which are aligned left and right side of HTML document. On click of each button will included some Other PHP file but I want to remove the previous loaded on startup file before including any other file.
Here is my code
<?php
// php file on startup of file
include("dashboard.php");
$activity = $_REQUEST['activity'];
if($activity) {
if($activity == 'addMember'){
include("addMember.php");
remove("dashboard.php");
}
if($activity == 'dashboard'){
}
if($activity == 'issueBooks'){
include("issueBooks.php");
}
if($activity == 'returnBooks'){
include("returnBooks.php");
}
<?php
I tried with
if($activity == 'addMember'){
include("addMember.php");
remove("dashboard.php");
}
But since I"m very new to PHP, it didn't work as expected.
Any Help anyone.
That isn't how include works. When you include a file, the contents of that file are executed at that point in the code. There's no straightforward way to undo that.
It looks like you want the dashboard activity to be the default view if no activity has been selected yet. To do that, you can just include it only when there is no activity value in request, or when the dashboard activity has been specifically requested.
if (empty($_REQUEST['activity']) || $_REQUEST['activity'] == 'dashboard') {
include 'dashboard.php';
}
I am trying to redirect based on a users input from another page. Or I want them to be able to view a specific file based on their input. First here is the code to direct them to a specific webpage based on their input.
<?php
$user1=999;
$user2=100;
$user3=200;
$account=$_POST["account"];
if ($account==$user1)
{
header('Location: http://menu.html');
}
elseif ($account==$user2)
{
header('Location: http://services.html');
}
elseif ($account==$user3)
{
header('Location: http://about.html');
else
{
echo "this don't work";
}
?>
edit - I've tried all the responses and comments in this thread and I am still having the same problem. The only thing I'm getting after I input the number is a blank page.
header('Location: /menu.html');
exit;
I have a website(www.website.com) and a mobile site (m.website.com) and I'm trying to allow users to "View Full Site" if they want from mobile. Currently I am using some Javascript to check screen width on full site then redirecting to mobile.
if (screen.width <= 699) {
document.location = "http://m.website.com";
}
This works fine. On the mobile site there is a "View Full Site" button. When you click this it redirects you to my script "force_desktop.php" which sets a cookie and then sends you to the main site.
<?php
setcookie("force_desktop", "1");
header("Location: http://www.mywebsite.com");
?>
Now that we set a cookie and redirected to the main website we need to check for the cookie instead of just checking for the screen width.
Logic
If Cookie force_desktop is found
Then exit
Else
run screen size test
Here is the code I attempted to use but doesn't work. This code is placed in my head.php file which will be run on every page and is placed between the script opening and closing tags.
Attempt 1
if($_COOKIE['force_desktop'] == '1' {
exit;
} else if($_COOKIE['force_desktop'] != '1' {
if (screen.width <= 699) {
document.location = "http://m.website.com";
}
};
Attempt 2
if(isset ($_COOKIE["force_desktop"])){
exit;
else
if (screen.width <= 699) {
document.location = "http://m.mywebsite.com";
};
Alternative logic that could work
IF Cookie force_desktop is not found AND screen.width <= 699
Then redirect to m.myseite.com
Else
Exit
Note
I have run the following script to make sure a cookie is being placed, and it is.
<?php
print_r($_COOKIE);
?>
I've run out of ideas and know my coding isn't correct, especially the If/Else statement within the If/Else statement. I also am not sure if it is better to use the "isset" to see if the cookie is being used or ($_COOKIES['variable'] == "#"). I'd really appreciate some good feedback on this one.
Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions,
Matt
You're mixing JavaScript and PHP. You're trying to use screen.width in your PHP script, which doesn't make sense. You need to use an echo statement to output the JavaScript into the page. It'll then check the user's screen resolution and do the redirect.
Try this:
if(isset ($_COOKIE["force_desktop"])){
exit;
}
else
{
echo '<script>
if (screen.width <= 699) {
document.location = "http://m.mywebsite.com";}
</script>';
};
you should do this test at the top of the php page, and for sure you cannot mix php and java script like this
u can alter this code like
<?php
$flag = 0;
if(isset($_COOKIE['force_desktop']))$flag++;
?>
later in the page use the code as soon as <head> tag starts
..
..
<head>
<?php
if(!$flag){
echo '<script>
if (screen.width <= 699) {
document.location = "http://m.mywebsite.com";
</script>';
}
?>
You cannot mix javascript and PHP, javascript is front end and PHP is back end. Try something like this:
if( $something ){
Header("Location: somewhere.php");
}
On my site, forms are brought in via AJAX and checked against a sessionid. I know this is not optimal, but it's working for us. If the referrer doesn't have the session ID they are redirected back to "anotherpage". I need to allow some outside URL's access the form directly.
we set the sessionid on the page with the link to the form.
Here is what we have now on the form page:
<?php
$code = $_GET['sessionid'];
if(strcmp( $code , 'XXXXX' ) != 0) {
header("Location: http://www.domain.com/anotherpage.php");
}
?>
I need to allow some outside domains direct access to the form page and am having issues with this:
(I'm putting it above the head tag on the form page)
<?php
$code = $_GET['sessionid'];
$referrer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
if(strcmp( $code , 'XXXXX' ) !=0) {
header("Location: http://www.domain.com/anotherpage.php");
} else {
if (preg_match("/site1.com/",$referrer)) {
header('Location: http://www.domain.com/desiredpage.php');
}
}
?>
this still bounces me back to "anotherpage.php" any ideas?
********EDIT*******
thx for the help, it works ad I requested. Now I see what I asked wasn't entirely correct. This appends the URL with =sessionid?=XXXXX. This isn't an issue on my site because I'm loading the content with .jquery .load so the URL doesn't change. I don't want the sessionid to be visible, and now it is. Can I either a) "trim" the url somehow or b) separate the two functions so they are exclusive?
if(strcmp( $code , 'XXXXX' ) !=0) {
if (preg_match("/site1.com/",$referrer)) {
header('Location: http://www.domain.com/desiredpage.php');
} else {
header("Location: http://www.domain.com/anotherpage.php");
}
}
As I read your post, you want anyone from the preg_match to get the desired page regardless of sessionID status, so you don't want to test sessionID first.
Start the if block with the preg_match test.
Your first if is checking to see if they don't have the $code and redirecting them. This will always be the case. You should probably check the $referrer first and then do the $code check.
Try reverse if with else
<?php
$code = $_GET['sessionid'];
$referrer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
if (preg_match("/site1.com/", $referrer)) {
header('Location: http://www.domain.com/desiredpage.php');
} else if (strcmp( $code , 'XXXXX' ) != 0) {
header("Location: http://www.domain.com/anotherpage.php");
}
?>
If I'm not misunderstanding this, the problem is in the order in which you are checking things.
If you want to allow some referrers to access the site even if they don't have the session id, you have to check for that before checking for the session id. Otherwise, they will end up being treated just like everyone else.
You can either switch the order of the conditions (first check for the referrer and then check fo the session id) or check for the referrer inside the branch in which you already know the session id is not valid.
The issue could be in your regex, it should be:
if (preg_match("/site1\.com/",$referrer))
notice escaping the dot (.)
