Providing different tour options

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:

<a href="<?=$gotourl?>">Text</a>

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

Best Regards,
