$match = false;
$sites = array("search.yahoo.com");

if(strlen($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']))

    $referer['host'] = str_replace("www.", "", strtolower($referer['host']));

    $match = in_array($referer['host'], $sites);
}

the following code needs to be in php brackets <?php ?>, you need to move your end tag down to cover this code

 

$rand_num = rand(1, 100);
if($rand_num < 10) 

   echo "you comes from yahoo, click the link to proceed.";

else
   
// if random no. is > 10 then display normal blog //
//  single.php code below //

 

also last php tag at bottom is not closed

 

also the following

echo "you comes from yahoo, click the link to proceed.";

else
   
// if random no. is > 10 then display normal blog //
//  single.php code below //

 

should be

echo "you comes from yahoo, click the link to proceed.";

} else {
   
// if random no. is > 10 then display normal blog //
//  single.php code below //
