Answer 1

This will return specifically what you are asking.

Dim mySiteUrl = Request.Url.Host.ToString()

I know this is an older question. But I needed the same simple answer and this returns exactly what is asked (without the http://).

Answer 2

string host = Request.Url.Host;
Regex domainReg = new Regex("([^.]+\\.[^.]+)$");
HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie(cookieName, "true");
if (domainReg.IsMatch(host))
{
  cookieDomain = domainReg.Match(host).Groups[1].Value;                                
}

Answer 3

C# Example Below:

string scheme = "http://";
string rootUrl = default(string);
if (Request.ServerVariables["HTTPS"].ToString().ToLower() == "on")
{
  scheme = "https://";
}
rootUrl = scheme + Request.ServerVariables["SERVER_NAME"].ToString();

Answer 4

HttpContext.Current.Request.Url can get you all the info on the URL. And can break down the url into its fragments.

Answer 5

If example Url is http://www.foobar.com/Page1

HttpContext.Current.Request.Url; //returns "http://www.foobar.com/Page1"


HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.Host; //returns "www.foobar.com"


HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.Scheme; //returns "http/https"


HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.GetLeftPart(UriPartial.Authority); //returns "http://www.foobar.com"

Answer 6

This works also:

string url = HttpContext.Request.Url.Authority;
