Very simple question but I am unable to find an answer, I have a MVC 2 app in C#
I have a ActionResult the accept's HTTP POST's
How do I find out the URl of any posts to my ActionResult.
Thanks,

A:
I think you're looking for:
HttpContext.Current.Request.Url
To ease testability you should look to abstract your use of HttpContext as it's a pain to mock. Try wrapping your access to it in a separate object you can inject.

I just went to implement your code (i marked it as an answer becuase I remembered I done somehting similar last week and i thought it would work) and VS 2010 is throwing me an error saying HttpContextBase dosn't contain a definition for current!? Any Ideas

Sorry I just tried to stick it straight in the ActionResult just to get it to work. having checked the MSDN site I realise I will have to abstract it out like you said above.
