Also remember that the HTTP_REFERER index may not always be set as not all requests will contain the Referrer header.<br><br>Tom<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/10/27 Simon Ferre <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:simon.ferre@onetwodo.co.uk">simon.ferre@onetwodo.co.uk</a>></span><br>

<br>
I believe what you are looking for is not a function, but a PHP variable:<br>
<br>
_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]<br>
<br>
Gives you the page that referred you to the current page.<br>
<br>
Do a phpinfo(); to find out more...<br>

Subject: [Phpwm] Simple? question<br>
<br>
Hello to you all,<br>
<br>
I have spent some time looking through the online PHP reference manual<br>
searching for a function which will return the URL or URI of the web<br>
page from which it is invoked, without success.<br>
<br>
I want to write a PHP script which will construct bookmarks for the<br>
likes of Facebook and Twitter for any web page from which it is called.<br>
I suspect I am trying to reinvent the wheel!<br>
<br>
I am sure that some of you experts will be able to point me in the right<br>
direction very quickly!<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.<br>
<br>
Peter Crouch<br>
