PHP - Referring Url

I have 2 referring url.   USERNAME http://testsite.com/...gister&ref=test USER ID http://testsite.com/...gister&ref_id=1   1. Code to remember  ref and ref_id 2. Code to allow user to insert own referrer if no ref link detected? 3. Store ref and ref_id into same column Like db referrer = username/user_id or referrer = username / referrer_id = user_id ?   PHP

$ref_id = isset($_GET['ref_id']) ? filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'ref_id', FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING) : '');
$ref = isset($_GET['ref']) ? filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'ref', FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING) : '');

FORM

if(!empty($_GET['ref_id'])){
    print '
	<tr>
    	<td style="font-weight:bold">Referred by user id #</td>
    	<td><input type="text" name="ref_id" maxlength="255" style="width:200px" value="'.cleanOutput($ref_id).'"></td>
  	</tr>';
	
}else{
    print '
	<tr>
    	<td style="font-weight:bold">Referred by</td>
    	<td><input type="text" name="ref" maxlength="255" style="width:200px" value="'.cleanOutput($ref).'"></td>
  	</tr>';
	
}

2. 

$ref = isset($_GET['ref']) ? filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'ref', FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING) : (isset($_POST['ref']) ? filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'ref', FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING) : '');

Hello People,

I've been racking my brains, searching google and trawling through the many pages here to see if someone else has already asked the same question but I cant find it.

I'm trying to build a simple redirect script based on the referring URL.

I want to direct the user to "page a" if any of the arrays are found and "page b" if not.

This is what I have so far

Code: [Select]
<?php 

$main_string="@$HTTP_REFERER";

$arr = array('aaaa','bbbb','cccc');

foreach($arr as $key => $search_needle) {

if(stristr($main_string, $search_needle) != FALSE) 
{
echo "<meta http-equiv=Refresh content=0;url=http://www.google.com/PAGEA.html>";
}
} 

?>
I thought that it might be a case of adding the "else" command but doing that will always redirect to "page b" if all of the arrays aren't true and only 1 needs to be.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

Hey!

I am having issues with my site not going to the correct page after submitting a form to login or register or anything in that regards. The script that referrers the user is poster below:

All it does is bring you to a unknown page.

Thanks!

$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];  <-- this returns the full path.

Can I return the referring page name only?

ie) somepage.php

Cheers

Hello,

When I use this function, the time always refers to January 1st 1970 ?! How come?
I get the output '4 decades 1 year 11 months' regardless of which date I enter into the function.. ?

Code: [Select]
function timeAgo($tm,$rcs = 2) {
    $cur_tm = time(); $dif = $cur_tm-$tm;
    $pds = array('second','minute','hour','day','week','month','year','decade');
    $lngh = array(1,60,3600,86400,604800,2630880,31570560,315705600);
    for($v = sizeof($lngh)-1; ($v >= 0)&&(($no = $dif/$lngh[$v])<=1); $v--); if($v < 0) $v = 0; $_tm = $cur_tm-($dif%$lngh[$v]);
 
    $no = floor($no); if($no <> 1) $pds[$v] .='s'; $x=sprintf("%d %s ",$no,$pds[$v]);
    if(($rcs > 0)&&($v >= 1)&&(($cur_tm-$_tm) > 0)) $x .= timeAgo($_tm, --$rcs);
    return $x;
}

When I call for the function I use this:
Code: [Select]
timeAgo($row['dateposted'])

The format in the database for 'dateposted' is:
Code: [Select]
2006-08-14 23:29:23

Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Thanks a million
