displaying the url from internet explorer in a text box

Coder

I am trying to get the current URL from an internet explorer window using the string str = Request.RawUrl; and then put the output into a text box on a form for later processing but I am getting an error saying that the name request does not exist in the current context.

Am I missing something very obvious or am I going about this the wrong way?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Hi, protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { Uri MyUrl = Request.Url; // Response.Write("URL is " + MyUrl.ToString() + "
"); Textbox.text = MyUrl }
