Are you direct dialing the page or are you clicking a link to see it?  i.e.
{page1}
... <a href="page2.jsp">foo</a> ...

{page2}
... <% if (request.getHeader("referer") != null)
   out.println(request.getHeader("referer"));
  else
  out.println("Referer == null Dig-it!");
%> ...
Going from page1 to page2 should result in "page1.yourextension" being written
to the screen.
Hitting ^L (YMMV) or typing page2.jsp into your address bar will result in the
second message.
Does that help?

Subject:  Problem with getHeader("Referer")



Hello all,
   I have a problem getting the "Referer" header from the request object in a
JSP.  The
only value I get for it is null.  I printed a list of the available headers (via
getHeaderNames()) and this is the list I got:
User-Agent
Cookie
Accept
Host
Accept-Encoding
Accept-Language
Connection

Does anyone have an idea why I can't get "Referer"?

Sincerely,
Dan
