uri value =referer value. I guess i have to use eval. Can you please give me syntax?

Hello
Probably you need to remove the domain part from the referrer field, as the uri doesn't include that part. Lets say:
uri: /example/page.html
referrer: http://www.example.com/example/page.html
Regards

That happens if uri is never equal to referer. Check your fields.

Is that correct? Normally eval is an assignment of a value to a field.
