One approach would be a runtime expression:

    <bean:header id="referer" name="Referer"/>
    <html:link href="<%= referer %>" .../>

which works because the <bean:header> tag creates a scripting variable along with a 
page
context attribute, in the same way that <jsp:useBean> does.

Otherwise, we would need to enhance the link tag to accept its href from a bean (which 
is
not a bad idea), and/or you could write a custom tag of your own.
