Re: retrieving current file name through asp or javascript?

Phil,
 You can probably glean this information from the ServerVariables collection
of the Request object. Check this page for a list of the available ones or
search the web on 'servervariables':
http://www.niblack.com/kbase/servervariables_x.asp

You might need to do some parsing to get just the document name since URL
and SCRIPT_NAME look like they include the path info, but this should be
easy to do. I didn't see one that just provided the document name. Format
for servervarible use is:

dim url

url = request.servervariables("URL")

This is server-side VBScript.

HTH,
Eric
