>> they came from after they log in.
We approach this with the rule of thumb �never trust the data the client is
sending you� So do not depend on referrer or cookie information unless you
absolutely have to. On our simpler �login sites� we insist on cookies being
turned on for session tracking and if the user times out or tries to access
a protected page we direct him to the login page then to the �after login
page� to start over again. Usually because they are 1 click away from the
page they were at.
On the more complex extranet sites we use session variables to track the
user and refer him back to the page he needed to login to see.
