In .NET MVC, is there an easy way to check if I'm on the home page?

Question

I need to take a particular action if a user logs in from the home page. In my LogOnModel, I have a hidden field:

@Html.Hidden(\"returnUrl\", Request.Url.Absolut         


        

Answer 1

You could use the

  Request.Url.AbsoluteUri

Then just check the string for the page name.

Might not be the best way, but its a quick and easy way.

I got that method from this page:
