Re: url without a query string?

I am not sure if the header(); function still maintain the referer, but if it does: You could make the first link lead to any named page, like: gate.php On gate.php you put: header("Location: index.php"); On index.php you put: if ($HTTP_REFERER == 'http://www.your_domain.com/gate.php') { header ("Location: http://www.where_users_really_will_go.com") } Maybe a few protections on gate.php so users don't call it directly are nice too... -- Julio Nobrega.
