I'm doing a little testing here on my end and have discovered that REFERER isn't set if the server is doing a redirect. I made a simple little two page script. The first page just contained this (the site doesn't have DNS outside of my network)...
header ( "Location: http://www.backup.jcn/referer2.php"; );
and referer2.php contained...
print_r ( $_SERVER );
When I went through the redirect, REFERER was NOT set, but when I clicked on a link from another page, it was set. I'll look at it a bit longer to see if there is anything out there to tell it was redirected, but it's not looking good.

How do I check for the port number? My redirects come through:[REMOTE_PORT] => 1070 [REMOTE_PORT] => 1074They are also increasing. It's a bit like a counter :) no? Even the link to http://compcanlit.usherbrooke.ca makes remote_port increase:[REMOTE_PORT] => 1079John John Nichel wrote:Like John said, REFERER isn't always set, and that looks to be the case here. One thing I did notice is that the redirect comes thru on a different port. If this is consistant, you may be able to use this.
