determining the web domain name

[Jonny Wilkinson]

Hi

I need to be able to determine the domain name the web page has been called
from. I have a site that can be accessed through different domain names
(they all point to the same IP address) eg. www.abc.com and www.bcd.com

Is there a way to do this in the ASPX code in C#

Many thanks

Jonny

P.S I did post this message before but it didn't show up in my news reader.

string[] url = Request.Url.ToString().Replace(@"http://",
String.Empty).Split('/');

Then examine url[0].

string currentDomain = url[0];

You can even do logic like:

switch(currentDomain)
{
case "www.mysite1.com":
//do some work here
break;
default:
//main site, catch all
//Do work here
break;
}

Now that I think for a minute (getting so used to parsing), the System.Uri
object makes things even simpler. Try:

System.Uri url = Request.Url;
string hostname = url.Host.ToString();

In VB.NET:

Dim url As System.Uri = Request.Url
Dim hostname As String = url.Host.ToString()
