I was thinking more along the lines of using sessions to make the call. But as pointed out, browsers set to not accept cookies by default would get locked out.

Then I thought of the javascript solution below. You could maybe only implement the javascript if there was no referer value, that way not locking out those that have javascript turned off...unless you have javascript off and referer set to zero, but then in that case scenario, you're prolly up to no good anyways....
