Ok. I got it to work. I did a simple test with a Pag1.asp and a Page2.asp.

The asp has a button which when clicked issues a
document.location.href = "page2.asp"

In page2.asp I do

response.write( request.ServerVariables( "Http_Referer" )

but it gives only the directory. "http://mesweb/scripts/
I need to know which page called the 2nd page. Is this possible?
