Get the current URL with JavaScript?

Question

All I want is to get the website URL. Not the URL as taken from a link. On the page loading, I need to be able to grab the full, current URL of the website and set it as a variable to do with as I please.

Answer 1

For getting the current URL with JavaScript you can use the following method:

window.location.href

You can also use document.URL; but it won’t work for Firefox.

You can also visit the following link for further knowledge URL of type DOMString, read-only.
