Thanks, Jochem, for looking into this. I just this minute figured out
my mistake- I was typing in the address out.php into the browser,
because I was expecting the referer to be out.php. But, the referer
that is sent is the page that LINKS to out.php!! As there was nothing
linking to it, there was no referer! I'm now digging a deep hole to
bury myself in...
