hi

i want to store the requested url in session.

here is the requirement say suppose i have page abc on which i have  
bidding option which calls bid/id but for that i m required to login.

so first i will be redirected to the login page and if successfully  
logged in i will be redirected to bid/id page which i requested.

can any one tell me how to do it?

thanks
