So for instance if i have a SignOn.aspx page, which then redirects to an Index.aspx page, in my method i want to be able to get the SignOn.aspx url.

Answer 1

If you are doing a redirect, you should find the page where the request came from in the

Request.UrlReferrer

This property gives the information from the Referer http header.
