Many firewalls and things of that nature strip this variable out.  It
should work for a lot of people but not all.

Subject: get refering url

cgi.HTTP_REFERER does not seem to pick up domain names outside of the
web site it runs from.

I.E. if somone comes from google.com to my web site i cannot use
cgi.HTTP_REFERER to find out where they came from.  The variable is
blank.  I was hoping is would be google.com.

Anyone know of a way to get the domain name of where the user is coming
from?
