HttpContext in itemDeleting Event Handler (works on itemUpdating and itemAdding)

Question

Hello
How can I redirect to a custom page in the itemDeleting event handler.
I don´t know why but the HttpContext is not available in the event handlers.
My objective is to redirect to some page in the itemDeleting after setting the properties.Cancel = true event handlers and replace/avoid the standard sharepoint error page. For that i need the HttpContext.
One thing curious is that the following solution works for the itemAdding and itemUpdating and I can access the HttpContext.
Code Snippet
public class MyEventHandler: SPItemEventReceiver
private HttpContext current;
public MyEventHandler() : base()
current = HttpContext.Current;
I hope you can help me solve this problem.
Thanks for the help.
Regards,
André

Hello all
The following solved my problem.
About getting the current httpcontext inside the event handler itemdeleting i have found here (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3120467&SiteID=1) a way to get it.
In my scenario I want to cancel the event handler and redirect the user to a custom page or just avoid the sharepoint error page and return to source page.
Code Snippet
public override void ItemDeleting(SPItemEventProperties properties)
base.ItemDeleting(properties);
//event handler code
properties.Cancel = true;
properties.Status = SPEventReceiverStatus.CancelNoError;
SPSite site = new SPSite(http://mysiteurl);
SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb("mywebapplication");
if (HttpContext.Current == null)
HttpRequest request = new HttpRequest("", web.Url, "");
HttpContext.Current = new HttpContext(request, new HttpResponse(new StringWriter()));
HttpContext.Current.Items["HttpHandlerSPWeb"] = web;
//to redirect to a custom url just replace the web.Url for a custom one
SPUtility.Redirect(web.Url, SPRedirectFlags.UseSource, HttpContext.Current);
Hope this helps,
