[opencms-dev] request.getHeader("Referer") doesn't work in JSP

[mfoley5 at csc.com.au]

Hi Alex,

sigh.   I'm sorry, but I think the problem lay elsewhere - after a few
hours looking at the problem, I eventually tried restarting WebLogic and
then it worked fine!  Days without sleep can be damaging to one's health...

Regards,
Mark

Mark,

thank you for reporting this bug. If I can verify it I will try to fix
it until the 5.0 release.

Best Regards,
Alex.

We need an "e-mail page to a friend" type function, but this isn't
happening!

Thanks for your urgent help!
