Yeah, I figured as much.  Thanks Chuck.

As an aside, this need is related to generating direct action URLs without a context or request (i.e. within a background thread.) Is it worthwhile to anyone beside me to have a directActionURLForActionNamed(...) method that doesn't depend on (ERX)WOContext? I keep running into this with threaded email generation, user-agent headers in a crawler, etc. When I get some time I may jump on it.

It should be easy to assemble:
"http://"; + WOHost property + WOCGIAdaptorUrl property + WOApplicationName property + ".woa/" + application.directActionRequestHandlerKey() + "/" + actionName

If you can't get it from the request headers, then storing it or using a property are the only options.

Is it possible to get at the server name without a request/ context? It doesn't seem likely but I thought it worth asking.

Right now I'm storing it at the application level when the first request is made. Alternatively, it can be handled by a property. Both of those seem extremely inelegant and I'm hoping for a cleaner solution.

Thanks,
Jon

P.S.  I am using Wonder.
