So how did you stop the referer header from doing that. I'd imagine it to be a clear simple command since it ought to be. Or was it not that straightforward?
It's easier now that there are some control headers for it. At the time I tried a lot of things like bouncing through javascript opening a new window. Results varied by browser. The simplest way was to inconvenience users a bit by supplying text urls for them to paste into the nav bar, instead of clickable links.
