Hi, I want to know the web site that someone came from, and so I was planning on reading $ENV{'HTTP_REFERER'} to figure it out. How reliable is that? Do browsers or other situations block it or obfuscate it? Is there another way to do it or any other issues involved? I'm usin

Re: $ENV(HTTP_REFERER)?

very strange. my copy of netscape 4.77 (as well as my copy of IE 5) correctly give the url of the referring page in HTTP_REFERER. by the way, this variable is not suitable for authentication, as it can easily be spoofed. just a warning, ymmv. * Dianne Van Dulken <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [2001-06-0
