Stupid HTTP variable, HTTP_REFERER. It's spelt wrong for a start.
Anyway, to cut a long, stupid story short, an HTTP call invoked from a javascript window.location change will usually set the HTTP_REFERER variable on IIS because the browser sends a Referer header.
I say 'usually' because it DOESN'T FRIGGING WORK in IE8. IE9, FF, Chrome, fine. IE8, nope.
Sigh.
If I helped you out today, you can buy me a beer below. Cheers!
In the same boat here... Would be nice to uninstall IE8 from everyone in the world's machine. (Starting with my company's intranet users.)
