RE: [cobalt-users] Passing HTTP_REFERER to a custom 404 page?

["Jay Fesco" <jay@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

but what you want is

servervariables("http_referer")

and you would use something like

<%
badPage = request.servervariables("http-referer")
response.write "I have no page called" & badPage
%>

servervariables is an array containing several useful bits of information
and like any array, you can walk it, and send yourself an e-mail of that
each time your 404 page gets called with lots of diagnostic information
that might help you chase down broken links on your site and on others

Thanks - but the servervariables collection is precisely what I've been
trying to use.  Most of the variables are there, but http-referer' (and
variations on the theme) are blank.  I believe this may be a configuration
setting of some sort, but I am at a loss to know what.
