Re: Get referer with PHP

Stut, I did not know that. Do you have any documentation on this? I would really like to read more about this issue. Thanks for the heads up. -Brad On 6/12/07, Stut <stuttle@gmail.com> wrote:

Note that this cannot be relied upon. A fair number of proxies and even some browsers have the option to remove or not supply this header. -Stut On 6/12/07, Luis Moreira (ESI-GSQP) <luis.moreira@esi.pt> wrote:

Hi

        This is possibly way too simple, but let me ask just the same :

        I want to add some code (may be PHP) on an HTML page, to check

the referrer.

        It has to be web-server independent.
        If the page is invoked by URL X, ok, if not, the page should

not

be shown.

        Can this be done ?
