I have set up a redirect to the mobile version of my site when the user is on a mobile phone. However trying to open this on an iPhone it produces the error 'Safari cannot open the page because to many redirects occurred' and when opening it on an Android phone it says - 'this page has a redirect loop'.

I cannot seem to find where the redirect is looping. Below is the section of my .htaccess file that handles the redirect.

ErrorDocument 404 /404.htm

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (^|&)m=0(&|$)
# Set a cookie, and skip the next rule

# Check if this looks like a mobile device

RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE}        !^.*mredir=0.*$ [NC]

# Now redirect to the mobile site
RewriteRule ^ http://demo.1ecommerce.com/index-mob.php [R,L]

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

Give a try to this -

RewriteEngine On

# Check if this is the noredirect query string
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (^|&)noredirect=true(&|$)
# Set a cookie, and skip the next rule
RewriteRule ^ - [CO=mredir:0:%{HTTP_HOST},S]

# Check if this looks like a mobile device
# (You could add another [OR] to the second one and add in what you
#  had to check, but I believe most mobile devices should send at
#  least one of these headers)
RewriteCond %{HTTP:x-wap-profile} !^$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Profile}       !^$
# Check if we're not already on the mobile site
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}          !^m\.
# Check to make sure we haven't set the cookie before
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Cookie}        !\smredir=0(;|$)
# Now redirect to the mobile site
RewriteRule ^ http://m.example.org%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
