Redirect mac and pc to different places

[ojsimon]

Hi
Bassically what i want to do is check the user agent and if it is a mac redirect to /mac if it is a pc redirect to /pc if it is another or unknown to /unknown does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

Have a look at the $_SERVER variable. More specifically, the HTTP_USER_AGENT index.

yeah how do i use this for a redirect?

thanks

Well, if the name of the OS is contained within the HTTP_USER_AGENT string, for example Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US) AppleWebKit/532.5 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/4.0.249.78 Safari/532.5, then what function do you think you could use to check whether the string contains the text "Windows"? Hint: maybe you want to find the position of the str.

Then you want to look at the header() function to sent a redirect-header to the browser.

I won't do the work for you :)
