note 57083 added to reserved.variables

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. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+57083 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57083&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57083&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57083&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57083&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57083&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57083&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57083&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+57083&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
