How to find out the original URL entered by the user

[nr673 .]

Scott:

Thanks for your response. It worked!!! As you suggested, removed the target
URL from SSO element and added a redirection to the URL
/Shibboleth.sso/Login?target=<URL> in Apache. The redirection will happen
when the _shibsession cookie is not present.

Appreciate your help. Thanks.
