I believe HTTP_REFERER will list the place from whence you were redirected, but unfortunately it does not distinguish between

Of which my application has many :-(
Ok, then here are two other ideas: 1. in your redirect to an acquired method which itself redirects back to the document, this creates a HTTP_REFERER header which will tell you that it - via this method - came from your application: raise 'Redirect',newURL+'/I_am_just_here_to_show_the_special_redirect' where 'I_am_just_here_to_show_the_special_redirect' is a python script which just does context.REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect(context.absolute_url()) I don't know ATM if you need perhaps context.aq_parent.absolute_url(). Now inspect HTTP_REFERER.split('/')[-1]. But note that HTTP_REFERER is not secure, because it's sent by the client, and some privacy tools/proxies might suppress it. 2. use cookies, which have their own problems. Or, use both methods. cheers, olive
