Providing different tour options

Hi All,

I have a paysite that I would like to offer different tours for my affiliates, 1 with a popup and the other without.

Is there a script or code somewhere that I could use to do this?

Im using CCBill for billing.

Thanks for your help,

Terry

Basically just copy the tour into a different directory & remove the pop-up. Then make sure the multiple URL/page thing is turned on in the CCBill admin so that the webmaster can send traffic to any page on the site using the &HTML=http://www.whatever.com/ part on the end of the URL.

Excellent Greenguy.. THANKS!

Terry

Ok the above works.. now lets go to the next step...

Lets say I wanted to offer hosted galleries, using the above I would have to make double galleries, one for each link.

I am sure with php I can use just one gallery and forward it to one tour or another just adding a variable to the URL... am I wrong?

Thanks,
Terry

You're right, that's possible... you can do it with PHP using a querystring on your URL. You'll need to add something like this somewhere on your gallery:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php



// this checks if the "pop" querystring is available on the URL code. If if it, use it to determine if it should redirect or not; if it's not available, use no pop as default.

//If you want to use pop as default just change $pop = 0 to $pop =1 

if (isset($_GET['pop'])) { $pop = $_GET['pop']; } else { $pop = 0; }



// edit the urls here...

if ($pop == 0) $gotourl = "http://www.yourdomain.com/nopop.html";

if ($pop == 1) $gotourl = "http://www.yourdomain.com/pop.html";



?>

Then on your link you will have something like this:

Code:

Text

All webmasters will need to do is adding a ?pop=0 suffix on the url if they don't want popups or 1 otherwise. Let's say your gallery is named gallery.php, so the two alternatives would be:

http://www.yourdomain.com/gallery.php?pop=0 (no popups)
http://www.yourdomain.com/gallery.php?pop=1 (with popups)

I'm pretty sure that will work even though I haven't tested the code above :)

Awesome Thiago.

I will give it a try.. and let you know.

Thanks,
