Chrome Version : 1.0.154.43 URLs (if applicable) : create a new tiny url from http://tinyurl.com Other browsers tested: Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue: Safari 3: OK Firefox 3: OK What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. redirect an url, you can use http://tinyurl.com to setup a redirect url to say google.com and click the new url 2. open JavaScript console 3. in the console type in document.referrer What is the expected result? The referrer's full url What happens instead? The value is set to empty Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible. document.referrer is not set if the url is redirected. You can access this property in FF and Safari reliably. I'm not sure if this is being suppressed to prevent ad-sense spammers, but I have a legitimate need to determine the referrer value and would appreciate if anyone can throw some light on this. Thanks.
