4. Add the PHP code below to the header page, or on the top of the home page. Include the code right up the top, before any other code is output. Change the $domain variable accordingly to suit the domain of your website URL. See Fig 2.

<?php $script_path = ‘mobile_script/MobileScript.php’; if (file_exists($script_path)) { $currentScript = substr($_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_NAME’], strripos($_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_NAME’],

‘/’)+1); $domain = ‘domain.com.au’; if($currentScript == ‘index.php’ && file_exists($script_path)){ require_once($script_path); $normalsite = $domain; $mobilesite = ‘mobile.’ . $domain; $script = new MobileScript($normalsite, $mobilesite); $script->currentHost = $domain; $script->detect(); } } ?>

In order for the script to function:- It assumes that the home page is index.php. If it is not, change the if statement

accordingly.- It assumes that the website files, including the home page, are located in the root

directory. Otherwise, the variable $currentScript will need to be changed accordingly.




5. If the site has been developed in Wordpress, you will need to add <?php ob_start(); ?>

immediately below the mobile script code snippet.

6. Adjust the following line, to reference the pages that will be redirected. For example, if the

home page is not index.php, then it will need to be renamed to the name of the file.

if($currentScript == ‘index.php’ && file_exists($script_path)){
