Getting at complete url of current page?

[Jack Hackwerk]

Hi,

though not necessarily a Spring question (I think), how can I get at the complete url of the current page in my jsp?

request.getRequestURI() returns the translated name of my jsp (i.e. something like /blahblah/WEB-INF/views/jsp/signup.jsp).

Is there a clever way to get the at the url as the user sees it (i.e. http://blah.com/blahblah/signup.html)?

Use

request.getRequestURL().toString()

Hi,

won't work either. Gives me this:

http://blah.com/blahblah/WEB-INF/views/signup.jsp

I basically need the unmapped url. I'm using
SimpleUrlHandlerMapping.

Really strange. Perhaps you should capture the name in an HttpFilter using request.getRequestURL().toString() and put it in a request attribute. It may work, because the filter is executed before the Spring Servlet, which seems to somehow chage the original url to the mapped one

I'm pretty sure that the InternalResourceViewResolver forwards to the jsp by default, so perhaps try the following:

request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.forward.request_uri");
