How to get current browser url using javascript?

Question

I have a website on the host example.myhost.com but I also have a subdomain for the French fr.example.myhost.com , which is different from example.myhost.com.

If I'm at fr.example.myhost.com and I use window.location.href , I get example.myhost.com instead of fr.example.myhost.com .

How to get the URL specified in the address bar of the browser?

Answer 1

window.location

The subdomain should not matter. If, however, you typed the URL in the address bar after the page loaded (but did not press the enter button), then this is a completely different story.

Answer 2

This is weird because it works for me. You can try:

• window.location.host
• window.location.hostname
• window.location.origin

Answer 3

See the same question: Get current url in web browser

Using:

 console.log(document.URL);
