 * Hi
 * Is there a tag for getting the URL of whatever page a blog reader is currently
   viewing?

 * I don’t know of a specific WordPress tag for that, but php can do it:
 *     ```
       <?php
       echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
       ?>
       ```
   
 * From the php documentation on php_self: The filename of the currently executing
   script, relative to the document root. For instance, $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’] in 
   a script at the address [http://example.com/test.php/foo.bar](http://example.com/test.php/foo.bar)
   would be /test.php/foo.bar.
