It’s http_referer not http_referrer. From dictionary.com:

referer
A misspelling of “referrer” which somehow
made it into the HTTP standard. A given web page’s
referer (sic) is the URL of whatever web page contains the
link that the user followed to the current page. Most
browsers pass this information as part of a request.
