Hi Larry,

You can do:

URL=http://<@DOMAIN><@CGI><@APPFILEPATH><@APPFILENAME>?<@USERREFERENCEARGUME
NT>

Note above the <@DOMAIN> and <@APPFILENAME> Metatags added to your example.

The only thing I haven't found is how to extract the protocol (HTTP:// or
HTTPS://) being used in the address. But in some ways that's okay because
what I do is store this in the database and assign it as a global Domain
Scope variable - this way, if the site is set for SSL, my variable always
forces the addresses to HTTPS:// for consistency.

The protocol can be gotten from client-side JavaScript, but that's not
always helpful when you need it.

Also, the <@CGIPARAM> Metatag has a couple of other features that might be
helpful for you, such as:

<@CGIPARAM SERVER_PORT> for the domain port number, e.g., :80

Or, <@CGIPARAM HTTP_SEARCH_ARGS> for all your Search Arguments after the
'?', which would include your _UserReference if it was passed previously.

So, you could have the following:

URL=<@VAR domain$HttpType>://<@DOMAIN>:<@CGIPARAM
SERVER_PORT><@CGI><@APPFILEPATH><@APPFILENAME>?<@CGIPARAM HTTP_SEARCH_ARGS>

Hope this is what you are looking for. Cheers....
