The Request Object
This data is made available to the server application via a %request object. More generally, any name value pairs in the URL and any form data (if the page contains a form) are included in the %request object, along with other useful information.
Here are some frequently used properties of the request object:
| Data | A multidimensional property containing the URL parameters (name-value pairs) for the request. |
| PageName | The name of the CSP page, e.g. ShowTimes.csp |
| URL | The URL up to and including the page name and extension, but not including the query string. |
| NewSession | Indicates whether this is the first request of a new session, which is useful if you have special processing to perform for a new session. |
| UserAgent | Identifies the type of browser that sent the request, which can be used to tailor output for specific browsers |
