HTTP_REFERER gets undefined

    :confused:
    Hi All,

    I need to solve a problem in Perl/5.8.0 vis-a-vis Apache/2.0.40.

    I have a Perl CGI script that calls another Perl CGI script.
    In the first script HTTP_REFERER is defined, but once the second script is called, HTTP_REFERER gets undefined.

    Any idea why this is happening ?

    Thanks.

    CGI variables are passed through environment. When Apache calls your first script, it sets up the environment, but when the second script is called, it seems to use the default environment. I can't help you with Perl, but this should get you started. Look for ways to export environment variables.
