I'm Dumb, Please Help

How can I print the
$GLOBALS['HTTP_REFERER'];
as a text string so I can search the path to see if it contains part of a domain name?

Something like

$variable = $GLOBALS['HTTP_REFERER'];

if(ereg("yahoo.com", $variable))
{

print "Yes! 'yahoo.com' was found in the referer \$variable";
}
else {
print "Sorry, 'yahoo.com' was not found in the referer \$variable";
}

Whats wrong with the syntax?

Well...if your example is really what you're working on, your . in yahoo.com is a metacharacter and needs to be escaped:

yahoo.com
