what i want to do is:

IF HTTP_REFERER = specific ip-address (coming from a specific website/server)

else

what's the php code for this
please help ^^.

 

could you use somthing like -
<?php
$url = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

if($url=="IP?")
{
do this
}

?>

HTML:

Untested, but you can play with it.

 

Funk-woo10,
I think your example is not what the author told about

inaga,
You can try to do the follow:

if ( $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] == '127.0.0.1 or url here' ) {
do smth;
} else {
do smth else;
}

PHP:

I hope it will help you.

 

@above

Small correction :

if ( $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] == '127.0.0.1' ) {
do smth;
} else {
do smth else;
}

PHP:

Hm.. maybe

Maybe inaga meant by this:
"specific ip-address (coming from a specific website/server)"
an url which presented as an ip-address..?

 

INAGA: clear the topic up,
some think you want to block specific users with IP adress
some think you want to block specific sites linking into your site


i believe you want to achieve the latter, since REFERER is REFERER and not REMOTE_ADDR


so go with this code, if you want to block a specific site linking to you

if(eregi("domain/ip/url-pattern-you-dont-want-to-link.to.you-here",$_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER])) { do-what-you-need-here; die; }

Code (markup):

 

i want it if it's comming from a specific website (www.zomganime.com)

 

happy, your solution did it for me. thanks +rep.

 

If you want to extend it out perhaps this might work?

$last_url = trim($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);
$parse_url = parse_url($last_url);
$last_domain = $parse_url['host'];


switch($last_domain)
{

case default:
//If no match do this;
break;
case 'www.zomganime.com':
//do something;
break;
}

PHP:

Why do you do "trim" to the "HTTP_REFERER"? I think the right way of that line is: $last_url = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];

 

Well normally I have functions that would clean the variable, I just used trim to show that I try to clean it up first. But my normal function would trim it, strip any html etc etc. Never trust your data no matter what!

Security should always be apart of any web application.

 

Ah.. yes. Sure, I agree with you. You're absolutely right! Thanks for the explanation.
