Hi all,

How can I retrieve the current page url(and parameters/arguments) using ASP
code?

The current page is an asp search results page so the url includes the page
name and the criterion(sorry I don't know what they're called) I had the
'post' method tag on the end.

I need to get it and store it so I have an easy way of getting back to this
page at a click of a button a few pages down the track. I've tried using
location and history but I'd like to manage it myself.

Any ideas?

Regards

Penny.

Thanks guys!!

It all seems so simple to you.

It's not a very intuitive name - ("script_name") - is it!

Please understand that this method does not always work. If the user has
referrer logging disabled, then that value will be blank when going to
another page.

From your original post, although you wanted to know the variable for
THIS page, I think you really may be looking for Request.ServerVariables
("HTTP_REFERER") [yes, it's spelled right, apparently it was misspelled a
long time ago, and it has stayed that way], but again, if the user has
referrer logging disabled, it will not work. Also, if someone comes from
another site directly to that page, the HTTP_REFERER will be for the
other site.
