owa_util.get_cgi_env does not have HTTP_HOST

All,

How do I get the HTTP_HOST from within pl/sql? It would appear that the Oracle Web Request Broker calls owa.init_cgi_env at some point with a select set of environment vars, but not all of them. Below is a list of what I get from owa_util.print_cgi_env. I know i'm getting the full set of env vars from my webserver (Netscape) because i can see them in CGI progs, but the web broker doesn't seem to get them to the pl/sql cartridge.

Is there a way to force the wrb to pass along HTTP_HOST or another way to get the value? I can't just use the ip address because we have multiple domains that resolve to the same one. Using the HTTP_REFERER won't work if the url is bookmarked or pasted in. Using dbms 7.3.3 wrb 3.02 netscape 3.5.1.

Thanks in advance,
chris
