Hi Shannon -
It may not matter why in the "where I'm coming from" in general, but the webservice I'm talking to needs to know what URL I am coming from for some kind of validation. I dunno. I'm just a programmer. What do I know about technical things? I'll figure this out eventually. I honestly don't even know if I'm even asking the right question yet or not.
At the HTTP/HTTPS level, it is the Referer: header. Yes, it really is spelled Referer, not Referrer.
E.g. Referer: http://www.example.net/specific-page-I-am-coming-from.html At the application level it could be something totally different. Ken http://www.ke9nr.net/ Opinions expressed are my own and do not necessarily represent the views of my employer or anyone in their right mind.
