    I'm working on a custom error screen and would like to display the url of the page that the user came from, and was attempting to go to. How do i do this?

    It is impossible to do with HTML without server-side processing.

    If you use PHP, you can get the requested url with 
    getenv('REQUEST_URI')
    PHP:
    and page that the user came from with
    
getenv('HTTP_REFERER')
    PHP:
