hehe, good reason ;o)

Unfortunately, I've not got it on mine either, so can't tell you either way
:o\, though, from what my host tells me, if it's a secure site, the
HTTP_HOST will not be passed onto the referring page.

It returns the same thing. Note that this variable is not reliable, in that
a person can make that variable be whatever he wants it to be. Example:
yourpage.asp:
<%
Response.Write Request.ServerV ariables("HTTP_ HOST") & " or " &
Request.ServerV ariables("SERVE R_NAME")
%>

Load that page and see the results. Then, open a command prompt (cmd.exe)
and enter this:

(Where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your site's IP address)

echo xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx bogus>>%windir% \system32\drive rs\etc\hosts

Now load http://bogus/yourpage.asp in your browser.

Hey. I've got a very basic newbie question, I hope you can understand me. Sorry for asking it, first of all. I see a lot of sites (e.g. communities) with a url-structure like this: example.com/users/paul (displaying the user profile of "paul") or example.com/pictures/landscapes/13 (displaying pictures from the category "landscapes", page 13). These are just examples, I hope I didn't confuse you.
