Hey all. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas regarding preventing the user of a web application from navigating directly to a page within the application using the browser (IE) address bar. Basically, the application does all necessary navigation through form submits, hyperlinks, redirects, etc. and no direct navigation is necessary. However, if some wisenheimer user decided to tried to circumvent the intended flow of the app, and directly entered the URL for a particular page of the application, it would definitely cause some issues.

Any help is greatly appreciated in advance! Thanks!
 
HttpRequest.UrlReferrer Property is a good idea, except dont rely on this. Not proxies,firewalls,nats, or preferences will sent this to you.
