Is there a way to detect which page loaded a script? Not talking about referer.

I have a .shtml sliced page and in one of the side includes I have a script that I want to see where the person loaded it from. For example, if they were on the contact page it'd look like http://www.page.com/contact.html.

Right now I am using the HTTP_REFERER and it does half work. If they come directly to a page that loads this script, there is no referer. The user has to actually click an internal link before they are given one. But at this point, it no longer shows what page they are on but instead what page they were on a second ago.

Any ideas or suggestions?
