Request.FilePath gets full path...built in way to grab just the filename?

[Darrel]

using Request.FilePath will return the entire file path:

directory/directory/myfile.aspx

Is there a built function in ASP.net to grab just the filename (myfile.aspx)
or do I need to write some string manipulation functions to grab it out of
the filepath?

Use this function to strip out the filename:

System.IO.Path.GetFileName(sPath)

Here's more info:

Here's a complete example using the script_name server variable for the path:

string pagename = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(Request.ServerVariables["SCRIPT_NAME"]);

The pagename string variable will contain "myfile.aspx",
if that code is included in myfile.aspx's Page_Load event or any suitable page event.
