如何隐藏实际链接，但不向联盟会员警告该链接来自重定向的链接？

Question

So far I've tried a simple page that 301 php redirects using the id (domain.com/link/1234/). Then I tried the same php redirect (forwards the id) to a php page uses id to et the uri to redirect using JavaScript (redirects using onload).

If I just click the link everything works fine. But redirecting receives a 404 from the affiliate company. Any ideas as to how I can accomplish this?

I would like to have all of my links use the id of the post.

example: domain.com/link/1234/

instead of the affiliate link: affiliate.com/sniper.php?s=g&7=8&g=0

EDIT

So if I use this JavaScript in the head it redirects perfect.

<script>
    var url = "http://affiliate.com/sniper.php?s=g&7=8&g=0";

    // IE8 and lower fix
    if (navigator.userAgent.match(/MSIE\s(?!9.0)/))
    {
        var referLink = document.createElement("a");
        referLink.href = url;
        document.body.appendChild(referLink);
        referLink.click();
    }

    // All other browsers
    else { window.location.replace(url); }
</script>

But if I add PHP into the JavaScript to add the URL dynamically. For example:

<script>

    var url = "<?php echo $url_to_affiliate_website; ?>";

    // IE8 and lower fix
    if (navigator.userAgent.match(/MSIE\s(?!9.0)/))
    {
        var referLink = document.createElement("a");
        referLink.href = url;
        document.body.appendChild(referLink);
        referLink.click();
    }

    // All other browsers
    else { window.location.replace(url); }
</script>

This fails, I have zero idea why. PHP can be on this page but not after the script tag.

Any ideas??

Answer 1

In case you have a redirect rule that rewrite /link/{number}/ to link.php?id={number}

<?php
//link.php

//Consider sanitize the input. (if it's number, use (int) casting for instance)
$linkid = $_GET['id'];

/*
 Get the affiliate url based on the link ID.
 If you're using DB or whatever.
*/
$url = get_affiliate_url($linkid);

header("Location: ".$url);
?>

Is this the code you have used? I'm wondering how you are going to use a php variable inside a js functions.

Instead you should echo the php variable as php.

EX:

<script type="text/javascript">

        var url = "<?php echo $url_to_affiliate_website; ?>";

        // IE8 and lower fix
        if (navigator.userAgent.match(/MSIE\s(?!9.0)/))
        {
            var referLink = document.createElement("a");
            referLink.href = url;
            document.body.appendChild(referLink);
            referLink.click();
        }

        // All other browsers
        else { window.location.replace(url); }
    </script>

I think this will help you unless i have misunderstood your requirement.

It is the way you have tried to embed the PHP variable in the JavaScript. You have to do either this:

<?php
echo '<script type="text/javascript">
    var url = "' . $url_to_affiliate_website . '";
    ...
    </script>';
?>

Or this:

// jump to the verbatim mode, aka not interpreted by the PHP parser
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
var url = "<?php echo $url_to_affiliate_website; ?>";
</script>
<?php // continue rest of the PHP code

Edit

I just re-read your post; I'm not sure if that JavaScript is actually embedded in your document or in an external file, but if it's embedded, the file that's doing the redirect will need to be called "index.php" not "index.html" in order for the PHP to be evaluated. Likewise, if the JavaScript is in an external file, the JavaScript file instead of the HTML file will need a ".php" extension and be included in the page like so:

<script src="./javascript-file.php"></script>

As for the destination page knowing that the page was redirected, they are likely examining the HTTP headers and seeing that the page was 301 permanently redirected from your page. You may be able to prevent/remove those headers before redirecting to the affiliate. I'd need to see more of you're code to be able to assist with that.

Since you say that the PHP can't be after the script tag, I'm assuming that's a limitation of the hosting environment. Here's a solution that may work for you:

<div id="concealed" style="display:none;"><?php echo $url_to_affiliate_website; ?></div>

<script>
    var url = document.getElementById("concealed").innerHTML;

    // IE8 and lower fix
    if (navigator.userAgent.match(/MSIE\s(?!9.0)/))
    {
        var referLink = document.createElement("a");
        referLink.href = url;
        document.body.appendChild(referLink);
        referLink.click();
    }

    // All other browsers
    else { window.location.replace(url); }
</script>

Answer 5

<?php
$url_to_affiliate_website = "http://affiliate.com/sniper.php?s=g&7=8&g=0"; 
?>

Are you sure the value your giving to $url_to_affiliate_website is the url you want ? Try also to rewrite your code this way. and use window.location instead

// IE8 and lower fix
if (navigator.userAgent.match(/MSIE\s(?!9.0)/))
{
    var referLink = document.createElement("a");
    referLink.href = "<?=$url_to_affiliate_website;?>"; // note the = after ?
    document.body.appendChild(referLink);
    referLink.click();
}

// All other browsers
else { 
window.location = url;
}

Also make sure you declaring the $url_to_affiliate_website before echoing it. And confirm if your file has a .php extension not .html

Save your file as UTF-8, if you use Notepad++, click Encoding->Encode in UTF8 then save your file and exit.
