[RESOLVED] Redirect page

Jon12345

When someone clicks a link on my page, I want them to go to redirect.php. This page will send them to either URL A or URL B. There is a 50:50 chance they will go to either page.

How would redirect.php look?

Thanks,

Jon

<?
$site = rand(1, 2);
if ($site == "1") { echo "Redirect to A"; } else { echo "Redirect to B"; }
?>

Hope that Helps 🙂

I also have a redirect function...

<?
$redirect="index.php";
c4redirect($redirect);
?>

# Redirect
function c4redirect($redirect)
{
echo "
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"JavaScript\">
<!-- Begin
redirectionTime = \"2000\";
redirectionURL = \"".$redirect."\";
function redirectionTimer() { self.setTimeout(\"self.location.href = redirectionURL;\",redirectionTime); }
//  End -->
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad=\"redirectionTimer()\">
";
}

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

fean0r, I understand your version a little easier since I am not very good at php. But I am a little unclear on what the entire php page would look like. The randomising makes perfect sense to me. But I am not sure what I would need in there to send my visitor to another webpage.

I made both replies!

The 2 parts work together, below is a working version

<?
# Redirect Function
function c4redirect($redirect)
{
echo "
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"JavaScript\">
<!-- Begin
redirectionTime = \"2000\";
redirectionURL = \"".$redirect."\";
function redirectionTimer() { self.setTimeout(\"self.location.href = redirectionURL;\",redirectionTime); }
//  End -->
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad=\"redirectionTimer()\">
";
}

# Site A & B
$a="http://www.msn.co.uk";
$b="http://www.google.co.uk";
# Get Random Site
$site = rand(1, 2);
# Redirect
if ($site == "1") { echo "Redirect to A"; c4redirect($a); } else { echo "Redirect to B"; c4redirect($b); }
?>

How stupid do I feel! lol

Thanks for the code. Can I ask what the Timer element is for?

how long before they are redirected, 2000 = 2 seconds
