PHP Display Telephone Number On Referrer

[dremes]

Please help

I have used the php below to show a different telephone number in the header of the site depending upon where the visitor comes from. The code below works but looses the original referrer information upon click of own site links, defaulting the telephone number back to the generic number.

Is there away to save it to the session, maybe the start session and save session is not done correct?


Thanks for any help

PHP Code:

<?PHP
session_start();
if(!isset($_SESSION[&#8217;referrer’])){

$referer = strtolower($_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]);

if (strstr($referer,"site1"))
{
echo("<h1>Telephone Number1</h1>");
}
else if (strstr($referer,"site2"))
{
echo("<h1>Telephone Number2</h1>");
}
else if (strstr($referer,"site3"))
{
echo("<h1>Telephone Number3</h1>");
}
else if (strstr($referer,"site4"))
{
echo("<h1>Telephone Number4</h1>");
}
else
{
echo("<h1>Telephone Number5</h1>");
} $_SESSION[&#8217;referrer’] = $referrer; // store session data
}?>

To retain session information, you need to be supplying a unique id to session_id() first, or using session_name() first.

PHP Code:

<?php
session_name('mySessionName');
session_start();
...
?>

no that did not seem to fix the problem..... maybe i am doing it wrong!

PHP Code:

<?PHP
session_name('ref');
session_start();
if(!isset($_SESSION[&#8217;referrer’])){

$referer = strtolower($_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]);

If you could please write / change the script, and the post it for all. I am new to this and would love a solution!

Please start using [php] tags. Instructions to use them are found in the BB code link at the bottom left of the page.

As for your problem, you aren't being clear. What about that snippet you just posted isn't working? Also, why are you using UTF-8 single quotes? Use basic ' single quotes or double quotes.

Change...

PHP Code:

if(!isset($_SESSION[’referrer’])){


To...

PHP Code:

if(!isset($_SESSION['referrer'])){
