Hmm. Isn't HTTP_REFERER actually the request for the previous page? If
page A is requested with
http://somehost.com/pageA.cfm?param1=foo#barA
and has a link to
http://somehost.com/pageB.cfm?param1=foo#barB
when pageB.cfm executes, won't the HTTP_REFERER be
http://somehost.com/pageA.cfm?param1=foo#barA
as pageA.cfm's URL produced the HTML with the link to pageB?
For some reason unknown to me, IE and Mozilla are reading the fragment
ID on the original link and applying it to the page they are redirected
to via cflocation. Safari and Opera don't exhibit this behavior however.
Any more ideas?
