How to get correct current URL in JSP in Spring webapp

Question

I'm trying to get a correct current URL in JSP in Spring webapp. I'm trying to use the following fragment in the JSP file: ``` ${pageContext.request.requestURL} ``` The issue is that the returned URL contains prefix and suffix defined by UrlBasedViewResolver. For example the correct URL is: http://localhost:8080/page But the returned one is: http://localhost:8080/WEB-INF/jsp/page.jsp

Accepted Answer

The best way would be to use EL like this:

```
${requestScope['javax.servlet.forward.request_uri']}
```
