Not exactly sure if I get the quesion right, but if you want to extract the hostname from the request in rxml the domain part is in the roxen scope, variable name 'domain' -> &roxen.domain;
As a little tip you could use the following snippet to get all variables and values in a scope (here the page scope) in rxml: <emit source="values" from-scope="page"> &_.index; = &_.value;<br/> </emit> Or look in the docs: Web developer manual > Variables, Scope and Entities for a list of variables. /Peter ----- Original Message ---- From: Martin Bähr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Marc Dirix @ Electronics Design" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, August 2, 2008 11:00:18 AM Subject: Re: access URL On Sat, Aug 02, 2008 at 10:46:26AM +0200, Marc Dirix @ Electronics Design wrote: > What scope/entity would I need to access if I wanted to extrakt > the requested URL. > > i.e.: http://www.example.com/foo/bar => www.example.com you mean you want to extract the hostname from the url? look at the available scopes. one scope should have some info about the request. not sure if the hostname is part of that. if not you need to write something in pike. greetings, martin. -- cooperative communication with sTeam - caudium, pike, roxen and unix offering: programming, training and administration - anywhere in the world -- pike programmer working in china community.gotpike.org unix system- iaeste.(tuwien.ac|or).at open-steam.org administrator caudium.org is.schon.org Martin Bähr http://www.iaeste.or.at/~mbaehr/
