Hi ,

Can you please tell me this .

I have seen a example which allows the user to Login (UserName and Password fields) and on to the servlets the author is retrieving the Header information like this :

String referrer = servletRequest.getHeader("referer");

Please tell me what does actually the Referer Header contains ??

I couldn't understand what you are trying to say by that login thing, but the general information about the refer header can be found here and here...
