Re: [Htmlunit-user] Form submit / Referer request-header field

[Marc G. <mgu...@ya...>]

Hi,

htmlunit doesn't currently set any Referer header. It's possible (but tedious) to use WebClient#addRequestHeader before 
to click the link. Please open a RFE for this.

NB: except if your webapp is only for intranet use, it may be quite unsecure to rely on the Referer header value.

Marc.
