Question

I’m not familiar with PHP session variables or how they work exactly, but I’m working on a site that has a mobile counterpart. On the mobile site (developed by another company)there’s a link to go to the full site that uses a URL ending in ‘?mobile=false’, and I’m just wondering how I can use that to allow mobile users to access the full site?

Answer 1

Put something like this in your entry point:

if (isset($_GET['mobile']) && $_GET['mobile'] == 'false')
{
    session_start(); // If you haven't done so already
    $_SESSION['ShowFullSite'] = true;
}

Then you can check for $_SESSION['ShowFullSite'] afterwards, which will be set as long as the session lives.
