[posterise]

if i have an html-page and want to define how user got to that page(by typing URL into address bar or from another page), i have to use request.getHeader("Referer") in a servlet, BUT how do i link this page with that servlet ? :confused:

What do you mean "link"? You want to map a URL into a servlet, programmatically?

I mean "connect", "reference", svyazat`, like when you connect form and servlet through action="..."

Calling the Referer can be done only in servlet as I understand, in doGet or doPost methods, but these can not be called at the time when page is loaded. So, how am I going to get to those doGet, doPost methods on page load ? without any Javascripts.

Or, may be call to referer should be done somewhere else ? :confused: i don't understand....
