Check this out. Though I am not a perl guru, I found this link which says you can do it. "The most frequently used headers can also be accessed through the following convenience methods. These methods can both be used to read and to set the value of a header. The header value is set if you pass an argument to the method. The old header value is always returned. If the given header did not exists then undef is returned." The list includes: $h->referer Here is the URL: http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.8.0/lib/HTTP/Headers.html Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-25 19:52:38] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug.
