How come $ENV{'HTTP_REFERER'} works with some computer and doesn't with the other ?
Hello !

I wrote the CGI script which will check where user come from.

If they came from the website which is listed on my database then they can go inside otherwise they will get the error message !

I used $ENV{'HTTP_REFERER'} to check where user come from.

70% of my customer can login OK - but other 30% they sent me their complain they couldn't get inside.

I believe they are very good customer and they came from the website which is listed on my database but somehow they got stuck (check my log and I saw their HTTP_REFERER = "" (none)

Anyone get the problem like me? Can you show me how to fix it !

Thanks so much !
