Ever wanted to see all the different redirect urls a particular link redirects through with PHP/CURL? Now you can with this nifty little piece of code (the only thing I haven’t written yet is a way to handle redirects that don’t contain the hostname). Anyway, with that said, check this out:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 | $url = "http://www.somesiteyouknowuseslocationredirect.com"; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); $data = curl_exec($ch); $curl_info = curl_getinfo($ch); $redirect_count = $curl_info['redirect_count']; $header_size = $curl_info['header_size']; $header = substr($data, 0, $header_size); $redirecturls = array(); if($redirect_count>0){ preg_match_all("/location:(.*?)\n/is", $header, $locations); foreach($locations[1] as $location){; $redirecturls[] = trim($location); } } |
