RE: [OS-webwork] pointing action calling pages

[Drew McAuliffe]

Do you know examples of when the "referer" header doesn't exist? Is it a servlet engine thing? I'm extremely curious because I depend on the "RefererResult" quite a bit. I'm very interested in knowing ahead of time in what situations that header value won't exist. FYI, on Tomcat and Oracle 9i, "referer" as a key works fine.
