PHP - Mobile Visitor?

not sure what to think of this.  my code is:

$time = date("H:i:s", strtotime("+19 hours"));

	mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR|MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT);
	$conn = new mysqli($dbHost, $dbUsername, $dbPassword, $dbName);

	$stmt = $conn->prepare("INSERT INTO tblTraffic (ip, host, page, date, time) 
						  	VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?)");
	$stmt->bind_param("sssss", $ip, $host, $page, $date, $time);

what I get is in the attached image.  as you can see, it returns correct and incorrect values for the same ISP/IP address, but it returns correct values for a google bot.  In the past I was using:

date("H:i:s");

....and I was seeing the same results.  e.g. - some IP addresses were producing both correct returns and incorrect returns.  this correct/incorrect mix was also happening with various google bot /yandex / msn domains as well.  what is up with this guys?

Hi, didnt know how to add this to the repository so can an admin move this please.

this updated version will tell you still when you recieve a visitor but to identify who i have included so that it tracks the ip and tells you when its you!!!

<?php
// Script to email you when Google refers traffic to your site.
$name=""; // add your name here
$email_address=""; // add your email address here

$keywords="";
$referrer=$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];

$known_ips = array(
    '01.01.01.01' => 'from the computer your are at now!',
    // etc.
);

$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

if (array_key_exists($ip, $known_ips))
{
    $ip = $known_ips[$ip];
    // you may want to use a different var name here now?
}



if( (stristr($referrer, "google")) && (stristr($referrer, "search")) ) {

   parse_str($referrer, $output);
   $keywords=$output['q'];

   $email_message="A visitor just arrived to the website after searching for '$keywords', Their IP address is '$ip'. ($referrer)";

   mail ("$email_address","Google referred a visitor","$email_message");
  
}
?>


hope it all works... give it a try and let me know.

I want to show different content to different users from different states. So, if a visitor is visiting the website from California, I want to show California content. Likewise, if a user is visiting from any other State (say NY, Chicago, or anywhere), I want to show content relating to that State. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Thank you.

I have a site with seperate content and design for pc and mobile devices...
What is the best way to detect and serve the correct content...
1. htaccesss file to detect the devise and then serve...
2. config.php file to detect devise and then serve appropriate files?..

... im guessing it is version 2 that way you can still allow mobile users to access the full website....
kind regards J..

What doctype do i use for mobile webpages when that mobile webpage contains PHP ? I'm useing the w3c reccommended ones but the PHP doesn't work at all but if i remove the php then all is fine..is there a way to combine the two?

Hoping someone can help me i know very little about php anyways i am trying to get this to work on my eccommerce site which is all in php. Here is the instructions i have i did upload the files all i need help with is where to put the single line of code for the redirect.

Installation

   1. Create a subdomain on your server called 'm'. (Ex: m.example.com)
          * Depending on what kind of hosting you have, the procedure to do this may be either editing configuration files and restarting the server, accessing a control panel, or having a system administrator set it up.
   2. Upload the files from the 'm' directory to the document root for your new subdomain.
   3. Your mobile site is working! Just visit your m subdomain to see it.


Setting up auto redirect

If your website is in PHP, you can use phpMobilizer to set up automatic redirection to your mobile site for mobile devices.

   1. First you will need to determine where to place the redirect code. Usually you would want to place it in a common include file, such as a config file, a database connection file or a header file.
   2. Add the following line of code before any html or text output.
          * require_once('/home/path/to/subdomain/m/mobilize.php');
          * Edit the path so it is pointing directly to the mobilize.php file, which will be in the subdomain's document root.
   3. Visit your website with a mobile device and verify it redirects you!
   

If any of you have developed mobile apps before I could really use some advice, please. I have never made one, and would like to for my website. I just need to query my database and display the information. From what I have been able to put together so far, I know that I can use css and jquery fine. My main question is: can I use php to query the mysql database? Pretty much I am a novice, so if using these languages together will not work, please feel free to suggest combinations that would be better. Although, I am trying to avoid as much object oriented stuff as I can, because I just don't get it entirely, but I'll still take the suggestion. Thanks.

Hi, I am bit confused as never done mobile website. I was thinking we have to use jquery to create a website into mobile.   is it possible we can use only php/mysql and html?   Is it mean that mobile website is smaller version or is it mean we have to use some certain technologies like jquery, html5.   How google/other search engines will know this is mobile version and other is general website for computers.     I was thinking differently but today i donwload free version of mobile website and in coding they only used html css? what about php can we use it too without jquery for database.     sorry to ask realy basic question. I am trying to create a first mobile website.     any advice / hints will be much appreciated.    

Hello,

How can I send SMS to mobile phone using PHP? Please point me to a tutorial for achieving this.

Also, what software will be needed to do this?

Hi

I am trying to create a site that determines the device's screen size. Most mobile phone browsers does not have javascript, so to determine the width and height of the screen I cannot use Javascript. Does anyone know how i can test whether a mobile phone is used to visit the site and what that phone's screen resolution is, so that I can redirect it to the right folder.

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone

This is not really about php code...sorry. But i want some advice if you dont mind. I am working on a system, but i would like it to be available for PC use, aswell as for mobile use. What would be the best? To create two websites, one for mobile other for PC, and upload them to .mobi and .com domains, or should i create only one... I need this to be as user-friendly as possible...because the clients who are going to use this, is those ppl that is not comfortable with a PC, not to mention the web.

Thanks

I have a form created that seems to work across most devices/connection.. but for some reason some phones, Androids specifically so far, seem to time out when the form is submitted using the mobile network. This has happened on multiple android phones. Doesn't seem to have an issue with iPhones. I also had a problem with a Surface tablet when connected to an android wireless signal.. tethering, the same phone that had the issue.   So what happens is once the form is submitted, it hangs for a while and then it'll say "No data received - Unable to load the webpage because the server sent no data. Reload this webpage Press the reload button to resubmit the data needed to load the page. Error code: ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE" and then after i refresh, it submits and goes through without a problem. Sometimes it refreshsed by itself after flashing this error and goes through.    Another time, using the Surface Pro, wifi and IE, I got the error "Forbidden" you don't have permission to access /new-window-2.php on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.   You can see an example of one of the forms here - connecttopros(dot)com/windows.php   And some of the code is attached below. I'm lost. I've tried using a different server completely, twice, and it didn't fix the issue, so it must be the way the php is put together?
