I’ve got a site that is pretty customized, set up on subdomains; sitename.domain.com and it’s got some pages (that are the same for ALL subdomains) sitename.domain.com/this-page. Every single site has “/this-page”.

We’ve got someone interested in using some of the stuff we’ve developed, but they are MARRIED to using subdirectories; domain.com/sitename which would, of course, have domain.com/sitename/this-page as well.

My question is, I’ve got some code

$sN = 'http://www.' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$PAGE = $sN . '/this-page/';
  • but of course this does not work for the subdirectory install (it looks for domain.com/this-page/ instead of domain.com/sitename/this-page

is there a way I can differentiate between subdomains and subdirectories?

$setup = "GET THE HOME PAGE, REGARDLESS OF SETUP"
if($setup ( CONTAINS www.X.X.com)) { //do the code above }
else if ($setup ( CONTAINS www.X.com/X)) { //do different code }

    [EDIT] Tried the solution from http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php#100881 but didn’t work for me, so I did this:

    <?php
    $sitename = 'sitename';
    if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'],$sitename)!==false){
        echo 'you are in http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . '/'; 
     // you are in http://sitename.domain.com/
    } else {
        $path = explode('/',$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
        unset ($path[count($path)-1]);
        echo 'you are in http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . implode('/',$path) .'/'; 
     // you are in http://www.domain.com/sitename/
    }
    ?>
