| Long: referer | |
| Protocols: HTTP | |
| Help: Referer URL | |
| See-also: user-agent header | |
| --- | |
| Sends the "Referrer Page" information to the HTTP server. This can also be set | |
| with the --header flag of course. When used with --location you can append | |
| ";auto" to the --referer URL to make curl automatically set the previous URL | |
| when it follows a Location: header. The \&";auto" string can be used alone, | |
| even if you don't set an initial --referer. | |
| If this option is used several times, the last one will be used. |
