Referrer Info

berbbrown

Can anyone help please?

Which browsers support "Referrer Info" effectively?

I want to record when hyperlinks are clicked on my site. Once recorded I want to then redirect to the external website. I also want to make sure that the customer when viewing their logs know traffic was directed from my site.

I have heard that some browsers do not support "referrer info" very well.

Can anyone tell me the most effective method?

Thanks in advance.

The only real effective method would be to make some sort of a deal with the sites you are linking too. Then send a variable through the querystring to them, which they can then check to see the referer. Of course any one using your links could still get rid of this variable in there request.

Its not really a browser issue, but it can be turned off in most browsers and faked quite easily aswell.
