ASP.NET When redirecting from a error also get the path

I am working on a website right now and when people have 404 it redirects them using this code.

<customErrors mode="On">
    <error statusCode="404" redirect="/errors/404.aspx?path="/>
</customErrors>

How can I make it so when it is redirecting them it also puts the path its redirecting them from?

So if they were on mysite.com/shfsd.aspx it would redirect as /errors/404.aspx?path=shfsd.aspx

I am not aware of any way to capture the URL referrer in a query string like this.

However, you could easily add code to your 404.aspx.cs code-behind and do what you like with it:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (!IsPostBack)
    {
        if (Request.Url != null)
        {
            var url = Request.Url.AbsoluteUri;
            //Do something like write to log file etc.
            //log.Write(url);
        }
        else
        {
            //Handle error from client who directly entered URL..
        }
    }
}
