Jim My understanding is that this is a client-side issue.
If the request is for a URL from the proxy, it should return a HTTP 30x redirect to a client. The client should then resend the original request with just the
resource requested changed (so including the referrer information). If your client is dealing with redirects correctly then any referrers should be available to your server. Of course that assumes there is a HTTP context in the first place. Links embedded in downloaded PDFs will not have a referrer, for instance as they have no source
HTTP context. Regards Eamonn Eamonn Neylon Publishing Technology Consultant T: +44 7817 740223 eneylon@signalarc.com From: handle-info-bounces@cnri.reston.va.us [mailto:handle-info-bounces@cnri.reston.va.us]
On Behalf Of Jim Tuttle Hi, How is HTTP referer processed by the Handle proxy? Should we be seeing the referrer for visits that arrive via the Handle proxy?
