hi guys i am having this error generated from this code
<html>
<head>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">
dim ReturnUrl
ReturnUrl=request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")
</SCRIPT>
</head>
<body>
<p align=center>
<b>"An error has occured! Sorry for the inconvenience ..." </b>
<br><br>
<a href="<%=ReturnUrl%>"> Return To Page </a>
</p>
</body>
</html>
Object required:Request
Now i know that i used the request object in a client-side script. The client does not have any notion of the ASP environment so
what i am truying to do cannot be done in this manner. All i want is to create an error page for my asp.net website..i mean when an error occurs it goes to this page error.html,shows the message An error has occured! Sorry for the inconvenience ..." and then offer the user a link to go back to were he was which can be handeled by request.servervariables("HTTP_REFERER").I got stuck on my method and cant find any other way.Ur Help is appreciated.10x

Hi RoniR!!
Two ways to do samething
**********test1.asp**********
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript" runat="server">
dim ReturnUrl
ReturnUrl=request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")
response.write("<p align=center>")
response.write("<b>""An error has occured! Sorry for the inconvenience ..."" </b><br><br>")
response.write("<a href='"&ReturnUrl&"'> Return To Page </a>")
response.write("</p>")
</SCRIPT>
</body>
</html>
***************test2.asp*************
<html>
<head>
<%
dim ReturnUrl
ReturnUrl=request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")
%>
</head>
<body>
<p align=center>
<b>"An error has occured! Sorry for the inconvenience ..." </b>
<br><br>
<a href="<%=ReturnUrl%>"> Return To Page </a>
</p>
</body>
</html>
***************
Note:-
In first method you only need to specify runat=server so that ur script will run on the server,since on the client side (when u use <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">) ,there is no request object ,that browser can understand.
hope this will help you
Cheers :)

Hii RoniR!!
Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER") is used with <a href> tag,and sometimes it gives null value to..
