HTTP_Referer

I have set up HTTP_Referer field on a form.I am opening this document from a view on the web browser,the HTTP_Referer field has the value of my view URL.All is fine until now.When I put the doucment in edit mode,the value of HTTP_Referer is blank.Why does it become blank in edit mode?

I made the HTTP_Referer an editable field with HTTP_Referer as the default value and I also made it a computed for display field with HTTP_Referer as the formula.In both cases,same result;the value is blank in edit mode.

Any ideas?

Appreciate your response.

Thanks.

If so, and FF works fine, then you’ve uncovered a regression bug in 8.5.

SPR # MKIN7C7UMX

Fixed in release:

8.0.2

Regression in 8.0

Product Area: Server Technical Area: Web Server Platform: Cross Platform

SPR# MKIN7C7UMX - Prior to this fix, the referrer field was not present when viewed with Internet Explorer. This regression was introduced in 8.0.

This was also a regression in 7.0.3 (I’m the one that opened the original ticket), it’s possible it’s in 8.5 also? Probably fixed in 8.5.1 if not 8.5 FP1.
