I tried a code from another question and it didn't work.
<?php
$ref = $_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"];
echo "Referrer = $ref";
?>
What is wrong with code? All it displays is "Referrer = "

What happened with your last question? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37104390/storing-http-referrer-as-a-variable/ under a different username ? – Pedro Lobito May 08 '16 at 21:09

create a link on your question ( you can remove it after) to the php file with the code above. – Pedro Lobito May 08 '16 at 21:10

Did you go to this page from another one ? If it's the first page you visit, it's absolutely normal that the referer is empty. – Spilarix May 08 '16 at 21:11

When you clicked from another link $_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"] can initialize.
