检查 cookie 并使用 jQuery 重定向用户？

Question

I have a site that has a log in page for english and one for french. I am checking for a cookie on page load and if it does not exist redirects user to the english log in page. Is there a way to conditionally check if the user is trying to access a french page to redirect them to the french log in page? Right now I have the logic setup but it creates a bad loop and does not work? is this even possible with jquery?

jQuery:

function checkCookie() {
    var current_url = window.location.pathname;
    var logInCookie = _siteNS.Utils.readCookie('x-access');
   
    if (!logInCookie && current_url != '/landing.html') {
      window.location.replace('/landing.html');

    } else if (!logInCookie && current_url != '/landing-fr.html') {
      window.location.replace('/landing-fr.html');
    }
    console.log('cookie', logInCookie);
  }

Answer 1

Your logic is saying that (assuming there is no x-access cookie), if we are not at /landing.html , go there. (One second, heading over...) and if you are not at /landing-fr.html (No I am NOT! You just sent me to /landing.html !) then go there ... (Ok, fine, I'll go. But I was there already and you sent me away...)

Can you see the loop you are making?

Remember, every time a redirect happens, your code executes in the new page, having no recollection of ever having run before...
