It may not exist at all, it may be tampered... It isn't reliable... (both the servers and the browsers can ruin it).

How would i get the page that sent someone to the error screen?? Both the $_SERVER and getenv calls to HTTP_REFERER return either empty or something undefined..
this code has no effect with or without the getenv capitalized
$refpage=GETENV('HTTP_REFERER'); if ($repage = ""){ $refpage="Direct Hit"; }
and if I try the same thing but with
$refpage=$_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]; if ($repage = ""){ $refpage="Direct Hit"; } I get the following notice on the screen when the script is run
Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_REFERER in E:\coddad\errors\403-50.php on line 28
