No, it's a HTTP spec.
Here's my chance to correct Charlie's correction of my original post! :)
I think it should be:
request.getHeader("referer"); (note lower case "r")
If you want to see an example, check the tomcat examples, the servlet is
called RequestHeaderExample and the source code should be available in the
examples directory.
