PHP, HTTP_REFERER not working on iframe?
In either case you're seeing the output of index.php. Here's why:
Scenario 1)
When you hit index.php from the link in test.php, it loads index.php (with test.php as the HTTP_REFERER).
Scenario 2)
When you hit iframe.php from the link in test.php, it loads iframe.php which internally loads index.php in the <iframe> tag (with iframe.php as the HTTP_REFERER).

Okay, here is my situation.
I have a page, index.php, which is the mainsite (flash site)
I have another page called iframe.php which contain iframe of index.php
Another page, test.php. Inside have 2 links, 1st link is directly to index.php, another link is to iframe.php
I tested:
I click the 1st link, when i trace/echo the HTTP_REFERER, it displays "test.php", but
I click on 2nd link, when i trace/echo the HTTP_REFERER, it displays "iframe.php".
Why it display "iframe.php"? Is HTTP_REFERER does not work on iframe??
Is there anyway to get the "test.php" when i click on second link?
