HTTP_REFERER

[kunal]

ok guys.. im totally stumped.. for some reason HTTP_REFERER isnt working This is my code

$refer = getenv("HTTP_REFERER");
$browser = getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT");
$ip = $REMOTE_ADDR;
echo ("$refer , $ip, $browser");


it echoes everything but the referer url.. you can test it at

is there any other way, i can find out the domain that refered my site? basically, i am running custom logs

hmmm.... this is odd.. it doesnt seem to be working for me..

this is some additional code to just get the domain name

$refer = getenv("HTTP_REFERER");
$browser = getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT");
$ip = $REMOTE_ADDR;
$doma = ereg_replace("http://","",$refer);
$domai = ereg_replace("/","",$doma);
$domain = ereg_replace("www.","",$domai);
echo ("$refer , $ip, $browser");
echo "<br>Domain name :: $domain<br>";

I think that there are some browsers which don't send the HTTP_REFERER header. You would have to check the documentation at www.php.net
