ayok Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Hi, Happy New Year 2008 I have a question. Is there anyway that I can use php/mysql to detect from what email address the link is clicked? I mean the visitors of a web page are only the people who have their email address in my mysql database. I want to give a link to some people i know by email, and nobody else can visit, but I don't want them to type username, password, etc. Is it possible? Thank you, ayok Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/83960-detect-email-address/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sesquipedalian Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 So wait, you want them to click a link, and it magically know their email address? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/83960-detect-email-address/#findComment-427242 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayok Posted January 1, 2008 Author Share Posted January 1, 2008 I mean like when we register to a forum, we need to activate by click on a link in email for confirmation.

stelthius Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 From what i understand he is saying is the users that he has in his SQL database, when one of them clicks a link on his site is there any script out there to tell him which user clicked that link, Stelth Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/83960-detect-email-address/#findComment-427258 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel0 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Unless you want to create a one-time link like those email confirmation links what you are trying to do is not possible.
