redirect desktop users to another page and mobile user to the main page

Question

I have a problem with this code.I want to redirect my desktop users to block.php page and dont let them in.

i tested a lot of code and non of them work for me.

at the moment,i found this code.its works perfectly...but there is e tiny problem.

when i check my site with mobile ( ios device )..it keeps reloading

this is the code :

 <script> if (navigator.userAgent.match(/iPhone/i) || navigator.userAgent.match(/iPad/i) || navigator.userAgent.match(/iPod/i)) { window.location.assign("http://example.com"); } else { window.location.assign("http://example.com/block.php"); } </script> 

what is the problem?

Answer 1

Assuming this script is running on http://example.com , calling window.location.assign inside of the if block would reload the page. It seems to me like you want to call window.location.assign(' http://example.com/block.php ') only if the user is NOT on a mobile device.

You could try something like this:

 function checkIsMobile () { if(navigator.userAgent.match(/iPhone/i)){ return true; } else if (navigator.userAgent.match(/iPad/i)){ return true; } else if (navigator.userAgent.match(/iPod/i)){ return true; } else { return false; } } if (!checkIsMobile()) { window.location.assign("http://example.com/block.php"); }
