Restrict Access to Page

no worries mate. let me know as well if you find anything nasty about this,
or an easy solution.

the only thing I can think of, is *perhaps* you could spoof a page that had
a different clearance level with an url spoof and try to get into higher
level pages than your username typically allows you.

i'll check on that today at some point.

:) I can tell you what's going on. Just not why it's setting it as it as
instead of a session variable or something.

i didn't find anything while looking at this yesterday that said it would
cause a problem- the only thing I found was a reference to Opera having a
vulnerability in regards to the %2f as it relates to domain spoofing.

Looking like everything should be fine, just not pretty. I'll post back if
I find contrary information.

HTH,

Jon

Hi Jon,

wow - I'm not the only one with that code (that's somehow satisfying).
Perhaps someone could tell us what's going on.
Thank you for the response.

It didn't - your server did. What it's doing is creating a string variable
to feed to your login page to tell the login page (which is located at
whatever/login.php) where to redirect your browser to after it's logged in.

I see I have it as well. I don't know if it raises any valid security
concerns or not, but I would sure rather have it hidden...

Thank you - "%2f" means a slash. But why does D8 input these slashes (I
didn't), where do they come from?
