what does UrlReferrer exactly mean?
quote:
When visiting a webpage, the referrer or referring page is the URL of the previous webpage from which a link was followed.
for more information you can go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_referer
It can be null if you someone opened a browser and just entered your site address (without pressing a link to get there)

what does UrlReferrer(
Request.UrlReferrer
&Request.UrlReferrer.OriginalString
) exactly mean?
i wrote these codes :if (Request.UrlReferrer != null) { User_Info.Add(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request.UrlReferrer.OriginalString) ? Request.UrlReferrer.OriginalString : string.Empty);//6:UrlReferrer } else { User_Info.Add(string.Empty); }
i just know ReturnUrl querystring when a user tries to login to admin area.
so in web.config<authentication mode="Forms">
and now we have UrlReferrer server-side code.
i want to gather some information about my users of my web site such as User-Agent , User-Browser , Session-ID , etc...
but i really do n't know what does UrlReferrer exactly do and it is always null.(i think because of wrong usage)
would you please give me a simple example for understanding.thanks for attention
