redirect page

[Anon]

I'm trying to get this to work but it's only getting the first value for some reason. I have it print the $HTTP_REFERER and it's the right page. I'm learing this so this page is basicly just a test to see what can be done. below is the code.

if ($HTTP_REFERER == "page1.html")
{
$page = "1";
$rank = "1";
$redirect = "page1a.html"
}
elseif ($HTTP_REFERER == "page2.html")
{
$page = "2";
$rank = "2";
$redirect = "page2a.html"
}
elseif ($HTTP_REFERER == "page3.html")
{
$page = "3";
$rank = "3";
$redirect = "page3a.html"
}
else
{
$page = "0";
$rank = "0";
}

Is the missing semicolons genuine, or are they typos in your post?

For the sake of experimentation ('cos I want to help, but can't see anything obviously wrong), try this construct as a switch():

switch($HTTP_REFERER)
{
case 'page1.html':
$page='1';
$rank='1';
$redirect='page1a.html';
break;
case 'page2.html':
$page='2';
$rank='2';
$redirect='page2a.html';
break;
case 'page3.html':
$page='3';
$rank='3';
$redirect='page3a.html';
break;
default:
$page='0';
$rank='0';
}

Yes, I know I'm using single quotes instead of double - it shouldn't make any difference though 'cos there's no variable interpolation going on. I'm just too lazy to bounce on the shift key alla time 🙂
