If there is a link posted on Facebook to my website, and a user follows it, I would like to display custom content using PHP. I tried with the following method...
$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']
Facebook must block this feature because it is not working. Is there a method for this that actually works with Facebook?

Restricting the Referrer
We still need to let the websites you navigate to know the traffic is from Facebook, but we also want to prevent them from reading the full source url. Otherwise, they could know where on the site you were when you clicked their link. In order to strike this balance, we've taken advantage of a new feature called the meta referrer, currently available in Chrome 17+ and Safari 6+. This allows us to specify how much of the source url to share with the external site via the Referer header. If you're using one of these supported browsers you can take advantage of this new feature. Otherwise, your browser will be routed to the slightly slower older system.
This change should reduce the impact of the link shim on your browsing (especially when accessing Facebook from a cellular network) and should help save around a second for a typical user.
