Hi,
I used header("location: ...");

But my problem is that when I redirect to some website, they don't see my website as a referer, so what to do ?

I need a way that, when I redirect from "redirect.php" to "page.php" with header("location: page.php"); or any other function, and in page.php, if I use $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; I need to see "redirect.php, is this possible ?

From the original php documentation:

'HTTP_REFERER'
The address of the page (if any) which referred the user agent to the current page. This is set by the user agent. Not all user agents will set this, and some provide the ability to modify HTTP_REFERER as a feature. In short, it cannot really be trusted.

IE and some other browsers don't send referrers every time when you use php or javascript calls. You should try with Firefox.

Try sending

PHP Code:

header("referer: http://url_of_referring_page"); 


before the location header.

I think the best way is to use meta tags... You avoid all those problems.

PHP Code:

echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" Content="0;URL=pagehere.php">'; 


I dont know if this will help, but in some cases it worked better for me. I avoid many header errors.

Thank you for your help but they did not work they don't show me as a referrer .
I understand that the browser send the referer to the website, so it should be done in javascript, and I found a solution for this.

Beware: many browsers won't send a referer when redirecting to another URL via "refresh".
