He was asking for the referring page, as I understand it, not the client IP
address, which is what RemoteAddr will be. There's a header attached to such
things; I forget the exact syntax, but running through a snoop servlet and
dumping out header names and values will make it quite clear. It also
doesn't involve any parameter manipulation or anything like that.
