You could use cookies in all your pages to store the URL. That will work for pages within your domain. Other than that, there's not much you can do. The browser security model won't let you interrogate the history object.

thanks, but what im trying to do is write a page that will be displayed when a sites blocked, and you have the option to e-mail the site's url to the admin.

Aha... becomes clearer.

OK, on your proxy server there must be some code set up to display the "This site is norti" message. When a particular URL is requested... You'll need to set up some back end process to capture the requested URL there and display it in the page to be mailed off to the admin.

What code that is, will depend on what your servers are running. But it will have to be a back-end process, Javascript is of little use to you there I'm afraid.
