Passing variable to javascript sourced php3

I'm using this line in my pages (on freehosts, so no php or includes allowed) -

<script language="JScript" src="http://www.mydomain.com/function.php3"></script>

I need to pass the php the page referrer information. I used javascript to find the referrer and have given it the variable "ref" . How can I pass on ref to the php in this format -

<script language="JScript" src="http://www.mydomain.com/function.php3?referrer=ref"></script>

- where ref should be replaced by the variable ref.

This is a javascript question, but I will give you an answer anyway, since I'm such a nice guy

Basically, somewhere else in your page (where you make ref equal to the referrer) you would document.write the tag you have.

Example,

Code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
ref = (page referrer);
document.write("<script language=\"JavaScript\" src=\"http://www.mydomain.com/function.php3?referrer=" + ref + "\"></script>");
//-->
</SCRIPT>

Hope this helped.

Regards,
Robbo

This didnt work for me, maybe because thejavascript that I get back has another document.write function in it?
