Are you using .htaccess to redirect to ht=tps ?

I use this to force https and all is good wi=th the referee:

## Force SSL

Rewrit=eCond %{HTTPS} !=3Don

RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_U=RI} [L,R=3D301]

Putting [referrer] in your template displays the URL of the
referring= page that led to this one. This is a handy way to
give visitors a "=;back up" button.

Note: this will not work if the previous page= was a FORM
METHOD=3D"POST"

This "met=hod=3Dpost" limitation is not the cause of my problem.
In my situat=ion "method=3Dget" is being used via simple links
that look li=ke this:

http://www.domain.com/thePage.=dna?code=3D123&utm_campaign=3DsomeValue

Note that this link =example is "http" not "https".

I have my server =configured to serve everything via "https"
which means it is f=orce-switching all these "http" visits to
"https", a=nd this makes me wonder ...

Does this forced-switching to "http=s" cause WebDNA to lose
its [referrer] value?
