Re: $ENV(HTTP_REFERER)?

[Luinrandir Hernson]

I too have a question about this.
below is the code:

open(A,">>/home/thx-1138/cgi-bin/data/refs.htm");
print A "$ENV{'HTTP_REFERRER'}\n";
close (A);

The file opens, prints a return/linefeed and closes...

any ideas why this wont work???
it looks correct to me from what i have read.

  Subject: $ENV(HTTP_REFERER)?


  Hi, 

  I had already posted this to beginners@perl <mailto:beginners@perl> , but
  someone there suggested I try here as well.

  I was hoping someone would be able to give me a clue how I could find the
  referer IP. If I use the Environment HTTP_REFERER, it will work in IE, but
  not in Netscape.

  Does anyone know of another method that allows me to read this?

  Thanks

  Dianne
