[SOLVED] stylesheet and cookiecheck

[prime]

Sorry to bother the good people of this forum yet again

 

but I have been working on a stylesheet switcher program, and I have added a cookie detection check to it

 

<?php
   /* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ */
  /* --------------------------| CHECK IF BROWSER CAN SUPPORT COOKIES |------------------------------------ */
/* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ */
if (isset($_COOKIE['cookiecheck'])){
$prevpage = $_COOKIE["prevpage"];
setcookie ("prevpage", "$prevpage", time(), "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
setcookie ("cookiecheck", "$confirmed", time(), "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
$prevpage = urldecode("$prevpage");
$prevpage = unserialize("$prevpage");
header("Location:$prevpage");
}elseif (empty($_COOKIE['cookiecheck']) AND ($_GET["check"] == "yes")){
echo "your browser does not support cookies, you must have cookies enabled to use this feature";
exit();
}


   /* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ */
  /* -------------------------------| INITIAL RECIEVING FILE |--------------------------------------------- */
/* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ */
if (isset($_GET['stylesheet'])){
$stylesheet = $_GET['stylesheet'];
$prevpage = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
$confirmed = "confirmed";
$prevpage = serialize("$prevpage");
$prevpage = urlencode("$prevpage");
setcookie ("cookiecheck", "$confirmed", time()+3000, "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
setcookie ("prevpage", "$prevpage", time()+60, "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
setcookie ("stylesheet", "$stylesheet", time()+9000, "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
header("Location: $thisfile?check=yes");
}else{
header("Location:http://www.duelindeals.com");
}
?>

 

Anyhow the script is working great except for one tiny little problem it's not referring back to the sending page after the script finishes proper execution, it's going back to the home page.

 

what am i doing wrong, I tried echoing it out on the page to see what value $prevpage had and it seemed correct to the very page, but when its redirecting through the header it doesn't go there

 

thx in advance

It looks like you are setting your cookie to expire right when you make it. time() is right now. You might try something like time() + 10000. This may not be the only thing wrong with your script.

well the second part redirects to the frist part, similiar to form redux method

 

and at that point those cookies are no longer needed, so I am setting those cookies to basicaly delete

[prime]

the only problem is in the 1st step (the second block of code) I get the http_referrer and assign it to the $prev variable which i then serialize and url encode, then enter into a cookie

 

the second step (first block of code) then retrieves that cookie, serializes and urldecodes and then assigns it to a variable then sets the cookie to delete and assigns that variable to the header for a redirect to the http referrer.

 

the only problem is its not actually going to the http referrer just to the domain

Ok I found the problem

 

thank you anyhow everyone

 

for reference I was forgetting to place a simple exit in the first block of code right

 

<?php
   /* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ */
  /* --------------------------| CHECK IF BROWSER CAN SUPPORT COOKIES |------------------------------------ */
/* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ */
if (isset($_COOKIE['cookiecheck'])){
$prevpage = $_COOKIE["prevpage"];
setcookie ("prevpage", "$prevpage", time(), "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
setcookie ("cookiecheck", "$confirmed", time(), "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
$prevpage = urldecode("$prevpage");
$prevpage = unserialize("$prevpage");
header("Location:$prevpage");
exit(); // THIS IS WHERE i FORGOT THE EXIT
}elseif (empty($_COOKIE['cookiecheck']) AND ($_GET["check"] == "yes")){
echo "your browser does not support cookies, you must have cookies enabled to use this feature";
exit();
}


   /* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ */
  /* -------------------------------| INITIAL RECIEVING FILE |--------------------------------------------- */
/* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ */
if (isset($_GET['stylesheet'])){
$stylesheet = $_GET['stylesheet'];
$prevpage = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
$confirmed = "confirmed";
$prevpage = serialize("$prevpage");
$prevpage = urlencode("$prevpage");
setcookie ("cookiecheck", "$confirmed", time()+3000, "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
setcookie ("prevpage", "$prevpage", time()+60, "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
setcookie ("stylesheet", "$stylesheet", time()+9000, "/", "duelindeals.com", "0");
header("Location: $thisfile?check=yes");
}else{
header("Location:http://www.duelindeals.com");
}
?>

 

So now the script is working 100% thx for your help anyhow
