Re: FN-FORUM Tracking referrers

date posted 21st June 2002 18:26

Ian,

Thanks for your feedback.

I changed the page that has the two frames in to be an ASP file rather than
HTML and YES the referrer does get passed on to this page.

So I guess I need to load another site I control on another domain into this
framed browser and see if the referrer also gets passed to this page.

Dennis
