owa_util.get_cgi_env

[bdn]

Is there a simple way to use owa_util.get_cgi_env or another function/procedure of this package to determine the reffering url to a procedure. I have looked at all the environment variables I have access to and that doesn't seem to be one of them(or I'm just missing something) I would like to be able to do this without involving javascript which I believe I could use. Any suggestions..


TIA

have you tried owa_utl.get_cgi_env('HTTP_REFERER') ?

P.l. tell me where can I find docs about that?

Thanks

we just switched over to iAS from OAS 4.0
I had tried HTTP_REFERER before while using
OAS and always came up with an empty string.
It works now. (duh)

Thanks for your help. I feel a little stupid at the moment.

owa_util docs come with OAS and maybe iAS.

Docs about the environment variables and what they mean can be found all over the web, just do some searches for cgi environment variables or something and you'll find some helpful links.

Don't worry about feeling stupid I do it all the time :)
