I know there are a few issues with :visited and so now I’m looking for an alternative. I’d like to know if it’s possible for a user to visit a certain page on my website and once they go back to the homepage, a different image shows up.

Update: there are images in the homepage, when you click on one, it changes to a new one, indicating you’ve visited the page. BUT how do you detect if you are on another page of the site and you visit the link without clicking the image? I still want the event to trigger the change. Is that even possible?

    <?php
// Code to put in every page.
if (session_name() == "")
    session_start();    
    if (!isset($_SESSION['visited']))
        $_SESSION['visited'] = array(); //Init.
    $current_page = "current_page"; // Set the page here.       
    if (!$_SESSION['visited'][$current_page])
        $_SESSION['visited'][$current_page] = 1;

?>

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Test Page</title>
</head>

<body>
<?php foreach ($pages as $page) : ?>
<?php if ($_SESSION['visited'][$page]) : ?><p>Image 1</p><?php else : ?><p>Image 2</p><?php endif ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
</body>
</html>

    Using PHP Sessions it should work.
