Kunal, Looking at the referer header will tell you the page they came from, looking at the querystring typically of this address will normally give you an indication of the keywords or categories which they were using. ie, http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=using+xsl+in+jsp+pages http://google.yahoo.com/bin/query?p=using+xsl+in+jsp+pages&hc=0&hs=0 This would be the referrer page, you could then parse out the 'q' parameter for google, or the 'p' one for Yahoo! for keywords. Easiest way would be to do a split() or something i guess.
