referrer

Are there any HTTP Headers I could use to grab the entire referrer URL using a webserver/server-side scripting? Including query string, et cetera? You should be able to grab it from the $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] variable. To add to Chacha's point, I don't know if you want to capture the client side hash part of the referrer URL (sometimes, you do). I.e. if the client came from " http://www.domain.com?x=3#y=5 ", the $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] will only contain " http://www.domain.com?x=3 ", and the hash part won't be sent up to the server. If you want to capture that hash part (officially called

I'm seeing thousands of referrals coming from Russia and China every month from the domains below, I've tried adding the code below to my .htaccess file, and then testing it from another domain I own, but I don't appear to be getting the 403 Forbidden message I'm expecting to get. What am I missing? RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(www\.)?([a-z0-9-]+)\.social-buttons\.com$ [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} social-buttons\.com [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} googlsucks\.com [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} 4webmasters\.org [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} aliexpress\.com [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP

I am trying to get the full referring url to a page via javascript. So far the closet I have come is var lastUrl = document.referrer; This does not include the query attached to the url. var lastUrl = document.URL; returns the current URL with the querystring intact. Is there anyway of easily obtaining the referring url along with the referring query. You cant. You can navigate user to previous page with window.history.back(); but you will not know what url it was. You can get only this: document.referrer i know, it's not full query with url, but it's referrer. P.s. Would you like, that any

How can you get the HTTP Referrer when redirected from another website, not when they click on a link since it would work for $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] , but it doesn't work when a user has been redirected a website and the referrer would be empty. What will be the method to get the referrer? How can you get the HTTP Referrer when redirected from another website You can't. If the redirection takes place under your control, you can add the original referer as a parameter, but if the external redirector doesn't do that, you have no way to get hold of the information. An example of how I did it.

I have a page which accepts POSTs from a remote site. I would like to detect the domain that these POSTs are coming from. I realize that it can be spoofed but it is better than nothing. I have tried accessing the HTTP_REFERER variable but it just returns null. The page accepts POSTs from sources like PayPal (instant payment notifications) and other payment gateways. How can I get the referring call? You spelled Referer correctly. It should be: $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] with a single R, try var_dump($_SERVER) for more info. You are right that the referrer is easy to

Let's say I have an Android App A that is installed in the user's device and I have an AppWidget with my App where we let other Android developers publish their App promotion ads on a Cost Per Install basis. So we need to track if App B is being installed on the user's device through App A's referral. Let's also assume Android App B has its advertisement running on Android App A's widget and the link through which we redirect App A's users to App B's user to Google Play is with all referrer data. The URL looks like this (as recommended here - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com
