---- Problem with javascript in netscape

Finally, I have cracked what the problem is - and it seems so simple now. I think Netscape only tracks the HTTP_REFERER if someone actually clicks a link - not if the url is say an img or javascript src. Well that explains it. Just tested this with a simple text link and the HTTP_REFERER is tracked in IE and NS so that would appear to be the problem.

Hope someone finds that useful!

Cheers
