Omzy Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I've currently got a "Back to Previous Page" Link using $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] but I only want this link to be displayed if the user got to the page by browsing to it from the site, and not through a direct link from another site.

Omzy Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 Can we not get it to check whether the referer was on the website's server or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbarone Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Can we not get it to check whether the referer was on the website's server or not? it does $url = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omzy Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 Well ideally I need a universal solution, i.e. one where I don't have to explicitly specify the domain name. So it needs to basically check whether the referring page was a page on the server that the site is on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbarone Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 <?php $exp = explode(".",$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'],3); if($exp[2]){ $mydomain = $exp[1]; } else { $mydomain = $exp[0]; } $url = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; if (strpos($url,$mydomain )) echo $url; ?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
