In my site I have a password protected page containing some links to other sites also operated by myself that cannot be password protected. I would like to place a HTML code onto one of the other sites I operate that checks that the person arriving at the page has been referred from the URL of the 'Links Page'.
(I understand that this is not a secure option)
Summary:
If Referrer = 'Links Page URL' *then* Do nothing *Else* Redirect: www.google.com.
Does anyone know a simple HTML/ Javascript code that I can copy and paste into my site?

The address of the webpage where a person clicked a link that sent them to your page. The referrer is the webpage that sends visitors to your site using a link. In other words, it's the webpage that a person was on right before they landed on your page.
To check the Referer in action go to Inspect Element -> Network check the request header for Referer like below. Referer header is highlighted. Supported Browsers: The browsers are compatible with HTTP header Referer are listed below: Google Chrome.
The Document. referrer property returns the URI of the page that linked to this page.
if (document.referrer !== "http://www.stackoverflow.com") {
window.location.href = "http://www.google.com";
}
Or you can use regular expressions to check the referrer.
Anyway, this solution is really, really unsafe. You can just turn off JavaScript in your browser and won't be redirected...
