Header question

[Digimatt]

I need to redirect a page and clear the http_referer so it appears to have been type in the address bar. The software receiving the request displays the query_string if I type the url in the address bar. It dispplays the URI if I click a link. However, it truncates the URI after a preset number of chars and does not display querystring. I am passing query_string to third party, so I cannot rewrite code on their end to just see querystring.

Here is where I'm at right now:
header("cache-response-directive: no-cache");
header("location: http://www.tipjar.com/cgi-bin/test?test=this");

This clears my referer, but replaces it with the http_host.

Thanks for help.

is it possible to do something like:

header("referer: stdin");
or
header("referer: keyboard");
