Document Referrer blank

[Placido]

Hi everybody-

I have a problem with the document.referrer.

I have a page that load only if your document.referrer is recognized... My problem is that this customer of mine, coming from an Intranet secure site (

https://...)

doesn't seem to fill the document.referrer (meaning is blank when my script check it)...

What could cause that?

you understand that document.referrer will only have a value if the current document was loaded through the use of a link, not just a page redirect...

yes... I understand that... do you any other ideas why the document.referrer is blank?

Https has no bearing on whether or not document.referrer exists. The only possibility is that the page is not loading via through a link, but through a script, meta refresh, or something of the sort.

Hi Terwin-

It is actually thru a form submitting info...

You can disable the referrer option using the firewall security.

This customer of mine has a Cisco Pix Firewall... Do you know how to enable the referrer option again?
