Hi,
Hopefully someone can assist with this question.
I am looking for simple JavaScript code that will update the a href link url and display it on a static HTML page, based on IP address from which the access request came.
The good thing is – the IP will be static and fixed, it will be the same number, which I already have.
In other words, if I access the same page from different IP addresses, the page will display different link url based on that.
While I might be wrong, my understanding is this can be scripted using ‘if else’ logic – if a specific IP address is detected and matched, the JS rewrites the link address.
Here is my logic below. Sorry, I don’t know much of the JavaScript syntax and used the construct below as a hypothetical example (its probably a total wreck since I didn't use the right syntax and whatnot), but this should give the general idea:
if (location.referrer.ip('123.45.67.89.00') > -1)
document.write.href = 'www.xxx.com';
else
document.write.href = 'www.yyy.com';
Again, this might not be the correct approach altogether and a way more sophisticated solution will be needed, therefore I hope that some of you with coding expertise can provide some assistance. Just to be clear - the script should NOT redirect the page but only update the url behind the link displayed on it instead.
I know there are several technologies already out there that can offer the solution, but my task is to get this running on the client side in the browser; I am not allowed to use server side technologies like Dot.NET, ASP, JSP, or anything other than JavaScript and static html.
Can someone please advice if this can be done this way and if yes, can you kindly provide some example so I can understand the logic? Basically, I just need to know if the approach I described above would work and if yes, what the syntax for 'if' and 'else' lines would be, in order for this to function properly.
Greatly appreciate any help, Thank YOU!
JK
