[php] Help!

[Im Jake]

Ok, I was wondering how I could do something like this...

 

when you go to www.moparisthebest.org if you dont have a cookie then you are redirected to http://www.moparisthebest.com/agreement.php once u press the i agree button you are redirected back to www.moparisthebest.org. how do i do that?

Look up on:

 

1. cookies

2. if(isSet(....) {

// content

} else {

3. header("blah.php");

}

4. if statements

 

 

 

It checks if the cookie has been set, if not it most likely uses header to redirect you.

I would write a script, but I think it'd be better for you to look up a few things and learn about it, and then come back for questions.

I know almost nothing about php or html, could you write something up, i usually learn from viewing source codes...

 

EDIT: learned vb and java like that.

whereyoustarted.php

 

<?php
if (isset($_COOKIE["valid_user"])) {
// show content
} else {
header("whereyouwannago.php");
}
?>

 

whereyouwannago.php

 

<?php
setcookie( /* set whatever */ );
header("whereyoustarted.php");
?>

 

From that point the content will be showed. Until the user deletes the cookie, and you can choose to destroy the cookie within a specific time frame, etc.., plenty of possiblities.

 

I don't have much time, and I'm not exactly sure what you want to do, but that's the most basic layout for this type of activity.

 

And I don't want your money, go learn though. This stuff is pretty simple.

err...

 

<?php

if (isset($_COOKIE["valid_user"])) {

// show content

} else {

header("Termsofservice.php");

}

?>

<?php
setcookie( /* set whatever */ );
header("www.vbprogramming.org");
?>

wtf. is that right? gah this is so fking confusing. so i save this as ToS.php and thats it? is this coding right?

This will be my last post, I'm going out for a bit.

 

Here is what you need to do

 

set values for the cookie

 

setcookie(name,value,expire,path,domain,secure)

 

<?php
$value = "cookie value";
// cookie that expires in 24 hours
setcookie("valid_user",$value, time()+3600*24);
?>

 

<?php
// Print cookie
echo $_COOKIE["valid_user"];
echo "<br />";
echo $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["valid_user"];
echo "<br />";

print_r($_COOKIE);
?>

 

wrote this pretty quickly, so might include some type of syntax errors, but maybe another user will be able to help you.

 

Sorry I couldn't do more, if you're still having trouble when I get back I can try to help, otherwise, good luck.

<?php
if($COOKIE['tos'] == "") {
Header("location: tos.php");
} else {
Header("Location: main.php");
}
?>

would this work ;p?
