alpine Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 from --> http://no2.php.net/reserved.variables[quote]'HTTP_REFERER' The address of the page (if any) which referred the user agent to the current page. This is set by the user agent. Not all user agents will set this, and some provide the ability to modify HTTP_REFERER as a feature. In short, it cannot really be trusted.

11Tami Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 The page that send the user agent to the form must just mean the "web page" that sends the form fields. So the http referrer must just mean the opened "web page" that sends the form information.....correct?
