On Jun 9, Jos I. Boumans said: $ENV{'HTTP_REFERER'} : $previous = $ENV{'HTTP_REFERER'} ? $previous = an unknown site; You didn't test that. Perl parses your code: $a ? $b = $a : $b = $c; as (($a ? ($b = $a) : $b) = $c); So that $b gets $c assigned to it no matter what. Either

So yes, I take newlines in paths seriously. You can't be an ostrich about them burying your head in the sand. That's not secure, and you will be hacked. Ostriches don't really bury their heads in the sand, you know... S, that was supposed to be a secret. I've not been able to

Re: Understanding Randal's answer

I think the useful point that somehow got buried in the sand along with the ostrich was that security is a running battle. You *must* take every opportunity to plug everything that could conceivably be a security hole, even if it depends upon some other layer of security being broken first.
