I am curious about what you guys may have along the lines of best practices for forwarding from a URL to a login, and then jumping back to the original URL automatically. I have several separate applications that all need to utilize the same login mechanism. I want the user to be able to enter the URL for the application and if they are not logged in it redirects them to a login screen. I already have the sessions junk setup and understand all of that portion. I am mainly interested in how people are handling the return to a URL after successful login. I have done some research on this, and discovered the $HTTP_REFERER variable however the PHP site discourages using this. I have also thought of adding code to each page to export an "origin" variable to be passed to the login page such that it can be used to return the user. I thought of this method, but I am not real clear on how to manage this. Does anyone have any suggestion on implementing this, or another alternative that I have not touched on yet? Thanks in advance.
