Just a few notes on the PHP side… You could get away with just using stripos checks against the URI rather than ereg. If you do feel the need to use regular expressions (i.e. for more complicated URI-matching), then you'd do well to replace eregi with the pcre-compatible preg_match function (see http://php.net/pcre), which is faster and not prone to being discontinued any time soon (ereg will not be in the PHP core as of PHP6).
