safari define referrer

hi :)

anyone knows/has a clue how i could let the safari browser open a window with an own defined referrer tag ( also ev. broader .. self define 'http header' send elements )

.. me thinks the best way would be a scripting language command if it existed (apple- or javascript) ..

i couldn't find any reference in javascript that it would be possible (access violation?) except from a only referrer clearing MSIE hack .. for applescript i found in mozilla 1.3a an introduced non working (for me) <GetURL "url" from "referrer"> but this was dropped again in 1.4

another idea is to define in applescript a "url class" element (standard AS lib) the only thing that misses in it is the url referrer class property, basic authorisation properties are there. Additionally how to load a url in safari (i couldn't find a open url function that would accept the url class type)

would it be possible to influence safari via variables of a framework obj-c header file ??? (i don't think so but i'd like to be surprised) .. i couldn't find a reference for referrer in webkit .. but it exists a webcore header file with the property in WebCoreBridge.h (http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.3/WebCore-106/kwq/ WebCoreBridge.h)


thanks in advance
