<PRE>In short: you can't.

Browsers may send origin/referer/.. headers depending on the type of 
request, but you can't rely on them to be real or even just there.

&gt;<i> Thank you.  I couldn't work out if that's the host being called from or the host name in the request.  For example, a store called things.com makes a request to my service on widgets.net.  I need to see that the request is made FROM things.com for validation purposes. Is it correct that host will provide this?

</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Hi,
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> When receiving a Cowboy request, is there a way to find out which hostname the user made the request from?  I'm using CORS in my REST and Bullet app, where each call can be made through a given account.  However, I'd like to be able to lock requests for each account to a designated hostname to protect that users account usage.
