$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']
however, do not assume it exists or is even valid. It's an optional component of the request headers, and as such may not exist or may be filtered out by something the user is communicating through.

make all the links in your website like this
somepage.php?came_from=path/to/this_page_name.foo
or you can use sessions to pass the last page they viewed
as far as getting where they came from if the last page was not on your website, the only chance is the browsers referrer header, which isnt very reliable

if they don't provide it.. there's pretty much nothing you can do about it.
A page redirect alone, typically will pass on whatever referrer information was supplied to the first page. In your link, this is the case. Now, if you simply click on your link here, most likely, you will get the referrer information that will say this page.

Well
but, take a look on url
you click on
http://www.santicabanillas.com.ar/redirect.php
and this redirect to
http://www.arraialdajuda.com/santi/get_redirect.php
Code: Select all
header(location "http://www.arraialdajuda.com/santi/get_redirect.php");
the $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] its OK
but I need to get info about the redirect page that it is inside
1. $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] (where you click)
2.
http://www.santicabanillas.com.ar/redirect.php
(I need info about this page)
3.
http://www.arraialdajuda.com/santi/get_redirect.php (final page)
