Multiple domain identification script

Post by **Kajun** » Mon Aug 18, 2003 1:29 pm

Preliminary query really until I get some other stuff sorted out, but I would assume that if you had multiple domains active on the same content (mirroring) then you'd still be able to identify which domain was used to access it. For example, if we had ixyl.co.uk and slutfest.co.uk both active on ixyl's index page, you could use some scripting to identify which had been used to access it and act on that information subsequently.

Actually, I guess using HTTP_HOST in CGI or PHP should do the trick. Shouldn't it?

Correct my dear Margeret.

You can rip it out of the request header. You can stuff with it at the scripting level or you can do it at the web server level.

That's splendid. Thank you sire. Not as neat and tidy as having separate hosting solutions, but a darn sight cheaper.
