Note Submitter: Kniht ---- RE: Zoic While checking the referrer sounds like a good idea, this can simply be spoofed by any exploit attempts. It may help deter feeble attempts, but you will also lose any visitors whose browser or proxy strips referrer information. Since you can't rely on it and must use other validation as well, and since it has the potential to lose valid visitors, I don't see a reason to check it.
