how can I change the http_referer when using response.redire ct

alex p

I have create a website that links to other websites, using a
response.redire ct("URL_OF_WEBS ITE")
For some reason I have managed to get on top at Google, with these pages
that only redirect to a website of an affiliate program of mine.

The problem now is that the affiliate program thinks that Google is the
referer instead of me. What can I do to prevent this.

Is there a way to somehow alter the change the HTTP_REFERER when I use
Response.redire ct?

This is an example: <a
href="http://www.willemstad. net/Autoverhuur+Por tal+van+Curacao .1009.htm"

http://www.willemstad. net/Autoverhuur+Por tal+van+Curacao .1009.htm</a>

Regards,

Alex

If they click the link on Google, Google *is* the referrer.

If you don't want your referring pages listed in search engines add <meta
name="robots" content="noinde x,nofollow"> to the pages you don't want
indexed.

Of course I'm the referer and not Google, they come to my website which
then redirects them to the affiliate program.

Using SPLIT( ) to parse HTTP_REFERER

by: John A. Irwin | last post by:

I'm very new to PHP and am trying to figure out how to parse out a variable "HTTP_REFERER". My reason for this is my site was recently "FEATURED" (sic) on a website called FARK.COM. Because of this I received over 100,000 Hits in less then one hour and it caused my host's server farm to crash. While I understand that I could move to a more robust Web Host, I would rather trap any further links from FARK and redirect them to a rejection...

HTTP_REFERER question

by: M Smith | last post by:

On our web site we allow our members access to features hosted by another web site. The way the other web site authenticates users is to check the value of the HTTP_REFERER. If it comes from our Login.asp page it lets them in. When our users login to go to the other site, they login on our site's Login.asp page. When they click submit, our LoginCheck.asp page validates them and does a response.redirect to the other site. In most cases...
