Description
I need to check for the "Referer" header parameter when determining how to redirect the response after a comment/entry are added or edited. Looking at the code it seems obvious, but in three years I haven't seen this error. Is there a browser out there not sending the "Referer" header any longer? Or perhaps are they sending it with the propper spelling of "Referer" after twenty years of http spelling it wrong?

This was caused by Beau trying out a new elog shift change comment app. He is not using a browser so the header is not being populated by default. I need to check for this.
