I've got a site using an .htaccess file for friendly URLs.
The index page of the site controls everything, so the .htaccess file 
simply converts the the url into variables and redirects back to the index.

User sees:
www.mysite.com/newsletters/march

Get's directed to:
www.mysite.com?area=newsletters&month=march

...or whatever

I've got a case where I need to know the link within the site that a 
user came from on in order to direct them elsewhere properly.

Problem is that cgi.http_referrer doesn't play nice with the .htaccess file.

If I come from my example above:
www.mysite.com/newsletters/march

cfdump var="#CGI#" gives me:

HTTP_HOST       www.encompassediscoverymysite.com
HTTP_REFERER    [empty string]
PATH_INFO       /index.cfm

Any ideas of another way I can capture the address as 
"www.mysite.com/newsletters/march"?
