Object: Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")
Does anyone know why:
Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER") would return null if you clicked a
link to that page?
Ie
http://www.uswebpro.com/jwu/Untitled-5.asp
When I click the link to the next page i do not see the referer.
I'm hoping to be able to use this script:
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<%
If Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER") <>
"http://www.uswebpro.com/jwu/account.asp";
Then
Response.Redirect "http://www.uswebpro.com/jwu/";
End If
%>

The referrer is only useful for logging purposes, not for performing
actions based on it.

I see it. But: There are proxies filtering out the referrer and some
browsers (like Opera for example) allow the user to disable it.
