Show Google Search Term That Brought Visitor to my Website?

[cromagnon]

Hi all

 

I like a script that can Show Google Search Term That Brought Visitor to my Website.

 

Example: People search for "flower baskets" and find my page in google result list. They pres the Google links and get to my page. Here they will read: "You find this page by seachring for "flower baskets".

 

I found this script, but it seems like its not working:

 

<?php   

$referer= $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];

 

    //find the search query from google that brought them here

    $qref= strpos($referer,'google');

 

    if($qref!="){

    $qstart= strpos($referer,'q=');

    $qend= strpos($referer,'&',$qstart);

    $qtext= substr($referer,$qstart+2,$qend-$qstart-2);

    $qtext= str_replace('+',' ',$qtext);

    }

    echo $qtext

?>

 

Can anyone help me to fix the script or bring me a new script for this task?

 

Thanks in advance

if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) {
  $query = array();
  parse_str(parse_url($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], PHP_URL_QUERY), $query);
  print $query['q'];
}

Thanks. Very nice! It works.

 

But it prints danish letters a little strange.

 

Like: gucci bælter

 

It should be "gucci bælter".

 

How can I be sure that danish letters æ, ø, å will be written the correct way in the script?

 

Thanks!!!

How does it show up in your source? It's possible you set the wrong character set.

I am not sure I understand what you mean...

 

When people are searching for "gucci bælter" in google, the script print it this way on the page "gucci bælter".

 

And that is wrong. Can I fix it?

How does it show up in your HTML source? FF&IE: View > Source

Actually the same as printed in browser: gucci bælter

Does your server host Windows? If so, then try:

 

setlocale(LC_ALL, '');

 

Otherwise you can try:

 

setlocale(LC_ALL, 'se_SE');

Its apache, but no, its unfortunately not working 

 

Is it really not possible to use foreign fonts?!

Sure, but you need to have them installed. And you need to know where your users are from so can you switch the locale to theirs.

The users will be from Denmark mostly. How can I install it?
