Re: FN-FORUM: Full Referrer URL PHP
date posted 12th May 2008 17:52
Sorry Brended didnt mean to be short there...;)
Having said that, if its the keywords from google etc, then it does work
most of the time, but as said awstats does a good job of it for you if your
running cpanel etc
This is the output we use ie from our emailer
We use it fro tracking new website developments on the SEO side of things
Heres an output of one of our emails:-
-----
Page : /version-9/go/folio/home.php
Referef Address :
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=empire+design+london&meta=
Remote Address : 82.198.250.71
Request URL Address :
www.cookra.co.uk/version-9/go/folio/home.php?folioLink=4&PHPSESSID=80eec8c
HTTP Host : www.cookra.co.uk
HTTP User Agent : Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1;
InfoPath.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)

Brenden is correct about the depricated code though, but not a biggy to
change...

Subject: RE: FN-FORUM: Full Referrer URL PHP
$REMOTE_ADDR
$HTTP_REFERER
$REQUEST_URI
$HTTP_HOST
$HTTP_USER_AGENT
arent these deprecated now?
as someone said before the referrer cannot be relied upon and can be
modified
$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
http://uk3.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php for more info
Kind regards
