FormsAuthentication.GetRedirectUrl()

[Dominick Baier]

Hey,

if you look at the source code you will see that these 2 parameters aren't
even used (besides a check for null)

you can safely do this:

GetRedirectUrl(string.Empty, false);

The "FormsAuthentication.GetRedirectUrl()" function takes two parameters:
- username
- createPersistentCookie

I don't know *why* the function needs these parameters to tell me what the
original URL had been that had been requested before the user was redirected
to the Login page.

Is there any simple way to extract the information for what that URL had
been *without* having to provide these parameters? What do they do anyway?
