[texhax] target page number of label

[attila marxer]

hi everybody :)

let's say, i've got a figure 3.2 on page 7 labelled
"fig:somefigure". what i would like to have, is a
macro \someref{fig:somefigure} which results in
(a) "figure 3.2" if the figure appears on the same
page as the text and
(b) "figure 3.2, p.7" otherwise.

however, this requires to check the current page
number against the page of the label (the page
where the float is finally placed)

i'm not into TeX at all, even though i tried to look
at the pageref source. so anybody who can tell me how
i get the plain page number of a label?

thanks!

Attila
