We have a webform in a block that lets anonymous visitors inquire about services that are relevant to the page they are currently on. Is there any way that the name or URL of the page they're on can be passed by the webform in the webform email?

I've searched extensively but can't find any conclusive results. Any help would be appreciated.

Found the solution - created a hidden field with the value %server[REQUEST_URI] and it passes the URL of the page nicely.

Does it work for anonymous users?

No :(

change
webform.module

....
function _webform_filter_values($string, $node = NULL, $submission = NULL, $email = NULL, $strict = TRUE, $allow_anonymous = FALSE) {
  global $user;
  static $replacements;

+  if ($node == NULL) {
+     $node = menu_get_object();
+   }

  // Don't do any filtering if the string is empty.
  if (strlen(trim($string)) == 0) {
....

and then use a hidden field %nid or %title

Thanks, This was very helpful. I wish it could be committed as without it webforms in a block are useless.

Found the solution - created a hidden field with the value %server[REQUEST_URI] and it passes the URL of the page nicely.

but the Email sent the webform page's url,don't sent the url of the page that webform block they are currently on.
I search at http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php
and I replace
%server[REQUEST_URI]
by
%server[HTTP_REFERER]
it works!
So I paste this at this page,hope can help someone like me.

The Webform Patched module takes care of this.

Thanks the %server[HTTP_REFERER] works a treat and also solves redirecting back to the referring page after submission.

Splendid - I owe someone a beer !
