You can't trust the referer info...
It may not exist at all, it may be tampered... It isn't reliable...
(both the servers and the browsers can ruin it).

Jon,
Try this:
if (($_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER] == "") || ($_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER] !=
"http://your_domain/your_file_name";)){
echo "You came from different page or tried to open this file
directly!";
}else {
echo "You came from my page";
}
Take care,

Yes, I think those are on, because when I use the phpinfo, the
HTTP_REFERER givces the URL of the previous link... even though I passed
through the form.
Anyway, now I am scrambling to adjust all forms in such a way that the
scripts will run only when I am moving forward, and not backward...
Than
you might want to see if track_vars is on? I know that I don't have
problems with those _VARS when I use a form. Are you sure the they are in
the right scope?
