I have a setup a redirect so any body on a mobile device get automatically transferred to the mobile version of the site. (See below - .htaccess file) But it suddenly occurred to me that some people may actually want to visit the main site (e.g on an iphone or ipad) Is there a way can somehow set a variable when a link is click is clicked (and kept for that session) and still allow of the .htaccess to control the redirect?
if it helps we are using jquery mobile and php
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What I have done before is use mod_rewrite to also set a cookie:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !FULLSITE=yes
### Your current conditions...
RewriteRule (.*) http://m.yoursite.com/? [R,L]
And I set the cookie FULLSITE whenever the user actually clicks the "view full site" link from the mobile site.
Hope that helps.
Any reason you dont just use a server-side User-Agent sniff combined with a cookie? I would also seriously consider not automatically sending iPad users to a mobile version - they have a full-featured browser and plenty of space to view your page as a user in a traditional web browser would see it

My question. How do I redirect mobile visitors, once they view a specific url within my website, to the mobile version of that specific url?
For example a mobile device user visits mydomain.com/thisurl then that url should be redirected only for mobile device users to mydomain/thisurl_mobile.
I have partly some htaccess code that might be a start? But not sure how to do this for a specific url? This is what I have so far (Btw it needs to be https):
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

I need to proceed 2 actions:
Permanently redirect from http to https (on mobile and on desktop versions)
If user uses mobile version - redirect to m.domain.com
The code I've tried to manage is following:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# If the user is asking for the fullsite, set a cookie, remove the query, and stop.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^fullsite$
RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ https://domain.com/$1? [L,CO=fullsite:yes:.domain.com]

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^mobilesite$
RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ https://m.domain.com/$1? [L,CO=fullsite:no:.domain.com]
# If the visit is from a mobile user agent, and there's no fullsite cookie, redirect and stop
# if the browser accepts these mime-types, it's definitely mobile, or pretending to be

I am using htaccess to create a mobile redirect for my website. Basically it changes mysite.com to m.mysite.com. In the process it also changes the url of images. How can I prevent that? Below is the code I am using.
# turn on rewrite engine
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/blog/
# only detect smart phone devices if we are not on mobile site
# to prevent redirect looping
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^m.easydestination.net$
# a bunch of smart phone devices
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "sony|symbian|nokia|samsung|mobile" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "windows ce|epoc|opera|mini|nitro" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "j2me|midp-|cldc-|netfront|mot" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "up\.browser|up\.link|audiovox" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "mini|nitro|j2me|midp-|cldc"[NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "netfront|mot|up\.browser|up\.link"[NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "audiovox|blackberry|ericsson,"[NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "panasonic|philips|sanyo|sharp|sie-"[NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "portalmmm|blazer|avantgo|dange"[NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "palm|series60|palmsource|pocketpc"[NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "smartphone|rover|ipaq|au-mic,"[NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "alcatel|ericy|vodafone\/|wap1\."[NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "wap2\.|iPhone|android"[NC,OR]
# redirect google mobile bot
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "googlebot-mobile"[NC]
# if the request is from any one of the above devices
# redirect to mobile site
RewriteRule .? http://m.easydestination.net%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=302]
You can add this, line before the last RewriteRule:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
To exclude all files with .gif .jpeg .jpg .png
Do not forget after to use absolute links for those images.
So i have been trying to create a mobile redirect for a portion (service area) of my site. The way the site is built requires me to use the htaccess file to accomplish this. I have the code in and for some reason any visitors coming from Google AdWords or Map Listings are forwarded to the mobile site, whether or not they are on mobile/desktop. This is the only case i have an issue.
My thought was to create a redirect back to the standard site from the mobile site for non-mobile visitors. Will this create a loop or will this actually work? Also how would the code work to designate, if NOT mobile, redirect to specific page. Here is what i have:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !text\/vnd\.wap\.wml|application\/vnd\.wap\.xhtml\+xml [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !sony|symbian|nokia|samsung|mobile|windows ce|epoc|opera [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !mini|nitro|j2me|midp-|cldc-|netfront|mot|up\.browser|up\.link|audiovox [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !blackberry|ericsson,|panasonic|philips|sanyo|sharp|sie- [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !portalmmm|blazer|avantgo|danger|palm|series60|palmsource|pocketpc [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !smartphone|rover|ipaq|au-mic,|alcatel|ericy|vodafone\/|wap1\.|wap2\.|iPhone|android [NC]
RewriteRule ^mobile-homepage$ http://www.example.com/homepage [L,R=302]
You want to get rid of all the OR flags in your conditions. You don't want "Not A" or "Not B" (because then only B would make conditions true), you want "Not A" AND "NOt B"
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !text\/vnd\.wap\.wml|application\/vnd\.wap\.xhtml\+xml [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !sony|symbian|nokia|samsung|mobile|windows ce|epoc|opera [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !mini|nitro|j2me|midp-|cldc-|netfront|mot|up\.browser|up\.link|audiovox [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !blackberry|ericsson,|panasonic|philips|sanyo|sharp|sie- [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !portalmmm|blazer|avantgo|danger|palm|series60|palmsource|pocketpc [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !smartphone|rover|ipaq|au-mic,|alcatel|ericy|vodafone\/|wap1\.|wap2\.|iPhone|android [NC]
RewriteRule ^mobile-homepage$ http://www.example.com/homepage [L,R=302]
The only questionable bit is the first condition. There's not way to logically group that OR everything else.
I have a mobile version of a site http://www.m.fdl.de/
and a desktop version http://www.fdl.de/
With a .htaccess redirect I link all mobile users to the mobile version, what is running nice.
On my mobile Site I set a link in the footer that should link back to the desktop version.
I tried it with several .htaccess solutions I found on stackoverflow but with no success.
my link is always linking me back to the mobile site.
This is my .htaccess . I found it on this post: Mobile Redirect using htaccess
