browser redirect mobile vs web!?!?

[suess0r]

Hi, i'm trying to determine what browser the user is coming from (ie: safari, firefox, ie, netscape, opera) and redirect them to our website.com and if it's from another browser that's not recognized redirect them to our mobilesite.com.

Right now i'm just trying to echo out what browser they have so i can redirect them after I know what browser they're on.

<?
function get_mybrowser(){
if(strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'Gecko')){
  if(strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'Netscape')) return 'netscape';
  elseif(strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'Firefox')) return 'firefox';
  else return 'mozilla';
}elseif(strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'MSIE')){
  if(strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'Opera')) return 'opera';
  elseif(strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'Safari')) return 'safari';
  else return 'ie';
}else return 'other';
}

switch(get_mybrowser()){
default: echo "default"; break;
case "ie": echo "ie"; break;
case "mozilla": echo "mozilla"; break;
case "firefox": echo "firefox"; break;
case "safari"; echo "safari"; break;
case "other"; echo "other"; break;
}
?>

Problem is this... the mobile page says "Page cannot be displayed" which is odd because it does support the $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']. I am wondering if I might have to take it out of a function, does anyone have any thoughts or touchups to the code??

Can you put the default before the cases? I've never seen it done this way.

Do you have an example that we can look at online?

the switch case is unnecessary

just echo the function

but to address your question, you could do

if($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']){
header("Location :website");
}else{
header("Location: mobil");
}
