Dynamic PHP Landers and CDN? (9)

Dynamic PHP Landers and CDN?

Hey guys

Recently I migrated from Cloudflare CDN to Edgecast however I think I have found some issues with Edgecast...

In some of my PHP landing pages I use

<?
$region=@$_GET['c1'];$device=@$_GET['c2'];
?>

and then use <?=$device?> to call out the information (pretty standard stuff)

When I was using cloudflare this was working fine, since i switched to edgecast its now bringing back {device} into the page. Im sure it has something to do with the edgecast caching....

anyways have you guys experienced similar?

CDN is for static files only (no PHP).
You can replace your PHP code with Javascript alternative to call out the parameters.

Thanks, do you know the JS code to call out the parameters?

Hmm, its strange that it works on Cloudflare though?

That sounds a bit odd - please post if you figure out how that was possible

As far as i know if you have the parameter in the Voluum link for example you can use getURLParameter to grab it with js.

Curious what made you switch...were you unhappy with CloudFlare? I was just about to sign up with them.

Have a look for some sample code here:

Cloudflare does not cache php or html. You may be able to get html cached (they have article on that), but if any url strings are added, it will pull from server, not cache.

Ah thats interesting, so all along Cloudflare probably wasnt accellerating my content then...

I have now added Javascript to my pages and EdgeCast seems to be working great Thanks guys
