Hi,

How can we can find out the source of user from where he came to our portal, like how can we check whether user came from google search or any advertisement portal.
Thanks in advance

While not strictly a Java solution, the HTTP header field called "referer" generally has a URI to the linking document. The W3C HTTP/1.1 Header Field Definitions (section 14.36) gives a brief overview.

Best regards!
