determining a page after a server.transfer?

I've got a page where data get posted and then once the data is validated a server.transfer is used to send a user to the appropriate page.

This works fine for me until I needed to create a progress meter to indicate which page the user is on. The only way to tell which page the user is on is by looking at the page being processed now, I want the progress meter to be drawn in an include file which all the pages use.

I tried using a server variable for the page but it only responds with the page that called the server.transfer.

Any ideas how to determine which page is being processed?

How about setting a Session Variable. That will be held at the client.

Session variables are not stored at the client. They are stored at the server, in the memory of the server. But it is the correct advice--use a session variable.
