How do I get the page name and/or url of the calling page in my internal web application?  For example if my page is AuditTrail.aspx and the page that called it is OrgInfo.aspx I want to be able to know the page I came from. Thanks.

The browser sets the referer header with the URL that made the request. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Referer

Uri referrer = Request.UrlReferrer

Keep in mind, here is no guarantee the header is set.  Web crawlers or automated requests may not set the referrer header.

Cool. I can pull the page name from that string then. Thanks.
