paul2463 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 '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.

Daniel0 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 It is called breadcrumbs. It is has its name from the fairytale "Hansel and Gretel" where the two children left a trail of breadcrumbs in order to retrace their steps. So are the visitors on your page with breadcrumbs. It shows the path to the current page. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/48060-solved-howto-make-this/#findComment-235605 Share on other sites More sharing options...
