Redirect mobile browser in apache but allow them to view full pages

Question

I know how to redirect browsers based on user-agent to the mobile site.

However I am having trouble allowing mobile users to view more then one version of a full pages.

Here is the scenario:

• Mobile user comes into the site
• User-agent is detected and redirected to the mobile site accordingly
• User views a html page but wants to view the full version
• User clicks the url with a ?ver=full parameter
• This prevents the user from being redirected to the mobile site again
• While on the full site the user clicks another link, they want to stay on the full version but because the link does not have the ?ver=full parameter they get redirected to the mobile site.

Note that all these pages are html (not php/asp) so this logic has to be done in Apache

Idears?

Answer 1

You can add code to your application to write cookies into clients browser, this will help you to determine which page user wants to see :)
