Hi, this is quiet simple to get the current page url with the help of java script. You just need to use the following code. Use it and enjoy it.

Current url of the page(without the hyperlink)

Code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
      {
       document.write(location.href);
      }
</SCRIPT>

Current url of the page(with the hyperlink)

Code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">  
      document.write('<A HREF="' + location.href +'">');
      document.write(location.href);
      document.write('</A>');
</SCRIPT>

Hi, for finding out Current Page Url with the help of JavaScript you need to use following script which I have developed for you. Just make use of it. And feel free to ask any question on this question.

Code:

<html>
<title>http://www.techarena.in (JavaScript:Current Page URL)</title>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- 

document.write (location.href)
document.write ("<p>")
document.write ("<a href='"+location.href+"'>Link To Current Page</a>")

// -->
</script>

Hi, I don't know how to write script to find out current page url with the help of java script, But I have a code which can be useful to you to find out this. You can make use of it and convert it to the code of java script. Just try to use it.

Code:

if (this.markCurrent) 
{
var links = this.menu.getElementsByTagName("First");*
for (var j = 0; j < links.length; j++)
if (links[j].href == document.location.href) 
{
links[j].className = "Current Page";
break;
}
}
