document.referrer will give you the same result as the ASP statement
request.servervariables ("HTTP_REFERER") note that JS spells referrer
correctly.

The page that the user can come to this page from is a log in page. Once
they have logged in then they can view this page as long as their session
lasts.

Erm :o)
The HTTP_REFERER wont necessarily give you the last page viewed ... (type in
the URL, use a favourites link ect and see what refferer it returns.)

Hi,
Is it possible to retrieve the last page viewed using javascript? At the
moment I am using ASP like so:
var last_page = <%=Request.Servervarialbes("HTTP_REFERER")%>;
is it possible to do the same but with javascript?
Regards,
Andrew
