note 59745 added to reserved.variables

HTTP_REFERER Replacement Being that REFERER is not a reliable resource to determine if a user is visiting a link from your domain, try using apache_request_headers() instead (formerly getallheaders). I found this to work very well with both IE and Netscape/FireFox when determining if a user is downloading a file from outside of my domain. <?php $host=apache_request_headers(); if(!eregi('domain.com',$host[Referer])){ //[...code to download file here...] }else{ //[...code to download alternate file here...] } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+59745 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59745&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59745&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59745&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59745&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59745&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59745&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59745&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+59745&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
