1. Yes, the “refresh” button triggers the onUnload event.
So the script would work when you press F5.

2. It was tested on Firefox and IExplorer only.
However it even doesn’t work on new FF versions…

Thank you, I’ve used your script on my website, it was easy to implement, and does exactly what I want it to do! I didn’t think it would be so easy!

Would you be kind enough to answer my questions?

1. Is it supposed to activate when the “refresh” button is pressed?

2. Does it not work on Safari, Chrome & other browsers, but Firefox & Explorer?

Thanks,

Andrei

I’m pretty much a php newbie, with my knowledge limited to hacking around with WordPress themes. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge with others.

Lets suppose you have 365 files named as 1.html, 2.html, …, 180.html, …, 365.html . One file per a day of the year. Then you don’t need this content-rotation.php or index.php files.

You can use this simple php-snippet below to include your numbered html-files into any of your php-pages:

<?php
include ( date("z") . ".html" );
?>

I’ve uploaded your index.php, content-rotation.php and some dummy index.html pages to my server, but I can’t see how it’s choosing the specific filenames based on the date command.

Is there a way to specify that it looks for, say, 1.shtml, 2.html and so on, if that number is the day of the year? If so, would you be able to publish the entire code that I’ll need? (obviously the 1.html or 1.jpg etc files are up to me to create!)

Many thanks in advance. I’ve spent hours looking for a solution and am more confused than ever!

Yes, this is possible.
The original script is designed to show HTML-snippets in random order.

In order to show one “tip” per day you can use the php-function date()
to get the number of a day in the year: date("z")
So the php-script would look like this:

<?php
$content_rotation_list = array(
"page1.html",
"page2.html",
"page3.html",
"page4.html",
. . .
);
$tip_idx = date("z") % count($content_rotation_list);
include( $content_rotation_list[ $tip_idx ] );
?>

Hope this help.

1) You need to include this script into your squeeze page with the form.
So when someone submits the form, their Email and Name would be
saved in cookies.

This could be any form you’d like.
This form could send the data to your autoresponder.

2) You need to include this script into the thank-you page.
Also adjust your thank-you page with the personalize <A name="firstname"> tags.
So the script would take the Email and Name from cookies and
substitute the text inside the personalize tags.

By another words, you need to include the script into both
the squeeze page and the thank-you page to get it working.

Hope this helps.

Michel

You need to check if your aspx script creates
a new session every time it starts…

I’ve set up a squeeze page which will direct
to a thank you page after someone enter
their name and email address.

But how can the autoresponder script integrate
with your personalisation script.

I tried following the steps shown but it just
don’t seem to work.

Please help.

Thanks.
