[PHP] Re: HTTP REFERER
$HTTP_REFERER The address of the page (if any) which referred the browser to the current page. This is set by the user's browser; not all browsers will set this. -from the php documentation -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: http referer problems
break it down.
if ( $ef != 'nm' )
echo a : $efbr;
else
echo b : $ef br;
if ( $HTTP_REFERER !=
'http://www.globalhealth.org/news/article.php3?id=1526' )
echo c : $HTTP_REFERERbr;
else
echo d : $HTTP_REFERERbr;
now you can see where the bug is.

For some reason, the following if statement isn't working. Maybe I
haven't
had enough coffee to drink or maybe I've had too much - what am I missing?
if ($efa != nm || $HTTP_REFERER !=
http://www.globalhealth.org/news/article.php3?id=1526;){do this);}
Thank you, Shawna

You wont get a referer on:
1. Header redirect
2. Direct entry (as above)
3. anonymous proxy filters out the headers
4. user install Privacy-protect software
5. The browser doesn't support it.
From one of my larger sites:
mysql select count(*) from stat;
+--+
| count(*) |
+--+
| 1391545 |
+--+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql select count(*) from stat where urlid=5343192248684061102;
+--+
| count(*) |
+--+
| 348162 |
+--+
1 row in set (1.69 sec)
mysql select (348162 / 1391545) *100.0;
+---+
| (348162 / 1391545) *100.0 |
+---+
| 25.02 |
+---+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql select conv(PASSWORD('[NO REFERRING URL]'),16,10);
++
| conv(PASSWORD('[NO REFERRING URL]'),16,10) |
++
| 5343192248684061102|
++
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
So 25% of my traffic is not sending HTTP_REFERER ...
YMMV.
