How do you get the address of the page you are on in JavaScript?
For example, if I had a script at somesite.com/javascript/home.html and I want to find out the request address (somesite.com/javascript/home.html), how do I get this information in JavaScript?
Javascript Solutions
Solution 1 - Javascript
You need to use:
document.location or window.location
You can read more here. Or there is a little more explanation over there.
For clarifying matter:

Solution 2 - Javascript
window.location.href;
or
location.href;
window is the global object, so location.href will be identical to window.location.href and NOT document.location.href (as long as there's no enclosing function or with statement which shadows the property)
Solution 3 - Javascript
What you are looking for is window.location.href.
Solution 4 - Javascript
I believe that either the window.location.href or the window.location.pathname objects will have this information.Someone could confirm or deny that though.
Solution 5 - Javascript
document.URL
Solution 6 - Javascript
document.location.href
or
window.location.href
