What do these return if you put them at the end of your code:

response.write request.servervariables("HTTP_REFERER")
response.write strREF
response.write Session("CC_referingURL")
There have been many, many posts made throughout the world...
This was one of them.

Then I think its probably being blocked somewhere.

Referer is not very reliable and can be blocked by Server / ISP and be spoofed by the client.

If you do a quick search on google for Blank HTTP_Referer you'll find a number of links describing the issue.

Cheers,
Andrew

Thanks Bunce

Must be being blocked somewhere.

Will use a bit of java script instead to get the referer

Thanks for your help

You can try, however if its getting blocked then I doubt it will matter what language you try as its not available...

Cheers,
Andrew
