$validreferer = "http://www.domain.com/index.php";

if (("$HTTP_REFERER") == $validreferer)

{
echo("i m in");
}

else

{
echo("Fail");
}

when i check the above page by clicking a link on the valid referer, it works for Netscape but fails in IE

any Ideas

thanks in advance

So echo the value of $HTTP_REFERER in IE to see what it sends.

Seemed to work just fine for me.

I've noticed that sometimes IE will add a trailing control character (can't remember which one) which trim() should be able to remove.

Or, use eregi() to find $validreferer in $HTTP_REFERER
