Heya folks,
I've got a little problem here, maybe you can help me out.
$HTTP_SERVER_VARS["HTTP_REFERER"] is supposed to point to the referring webpage, if it exists. As is $_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"] and $HTTP_REFERER itself.
However, it seems that I do not have this variable available on my server. I do however have this funky variable called "HTTP_WREFERER" which returns a strange string like value like below:
VLMHAALPTCXLYRWTQTIPWIGYOKSTTZRCLBDXRQBGJSNBOHMKHJYFMYXOEAIJ
I've searched PHP.net, and practically every PHP site on the Internet with no luck as to what this is supposed to represent. I've even tried to find out how I could "enable" the HTTP_REFERER variable, since it seems that it is disabled or something.
I am guessing that WREFERER is some kind of encrypted version of HTTP_REFERER, but I don't know. It changes everytime, so it is hard to say.
I'm running on PHP Version 4.0.6, if that helps.
Thanks,
Kyle Gibson
