拾取网页链接

Question

I was just learning how to develop a link sharing system and came across a road block.I wanted to pick up the link of the current webpage opened in my browser. For eg if i am on "google.com" the it should pick up the link of it. Also i wanted this link to be pasted in a input box that was designed by me so that i can notify the user as to on which page he is at the current moment. I tried the OmniBox of Google to pick up the address but was not able to write a robust function for it in JavaScript.

Just get it in your JS code, should be able to get the current url with:

   var url = document.URL;
   var elem = document.getElementById("myinputbox");
   elem.value = url;

You could do the get/set in one line if you wanted to:

document.getElementById("myinputbox").value = url;
