Get current page name

By Stefan Holmberg on December 28th, 2006

This function can be used to retrieve the current page:s name, i.e default.aspx, hello.aspx or whatever.

public string GetCurrentPageName()
{
    string sPath = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.AbsolutePath;
    System.IO.FileInfo oInfo = new System.IO.FileInfo(sPath);
    string sRet = oInfo.Name;
    return sRet;
}

By going through System.Web.HttpContext.Current object we are able to have this function in a generic dll or class – and not in each and every page needing to call it.

   I tried this and got the following Argument Exception when creating the FileInfo object.

   URI formats are not supported.
