Randall,
You're missing a proper web server...:-)
Seriously, $HTTP_REFERER and getenv("HTTP_REFERER") should work.
If not $GLOBALS["HTTP_REFERER"] should also work.
try this:
echo "HTTP_REFERER is $HTTP_REFERER, ".$GLOBALS["HTTP_REFERER"].",
".getenv("HTTP_REFERER");
and see which one gets set/returned.
