My boss wants to combine the previously build security, that we have 
within a notes Domino server, with a few pages that we run on PHP.

As I've tried to use PHP to talk to a notes database, and failed I've 
decided that the easiest option is to:

1. Add a link on the notes site to the PHP site.
2. On the first PHP page, do a check (if ($HTTP_REFERER 
=='http://notessite') {$_SESSION[loggedin] = true;})
3. Simply check for the session named logged in.

So I'm worried that while ths will work, it's a bit flimsy.
Can a user overwrite the $HTTP_REFERER?

Any other clever ideas to enable what I'm after?

Cheers,
Tris...
