How to get directory path of current rquest?

[Olav Tollefsen]

I have looked at the various attributes of the HttpRequest class, but I
didn't find an attribute to return the directory path to the current
request.

Given the URL Http://www.contoso.com/virdir/page.html, I would like to have
a method to return:

Http://www.contoso.com/virdir/

Does anyone know how to achieve this?

Olav, check out this blog entry from Rick Strahl -
http://west-wind.com/weblog/posts/269.aspx

This blog entry should be in everyone's bookmarks, as it's probably the
best place to go to find out about determining path information in
ASP.NET. He has some code posted in that entry that does precisely what
you are looking for.

Happy Programming!
