I need to pass the url where the javascript is at the moment instead

  • 0

I need to pass the url where the javascript is at the moment instead of using the url in the textbox.
Currently I have textbox and a button, I am getting the url from the textbox and then using it in the javascript. I want only to press the button and the script to get automatically the page where the code is. For example, if I have the code at http://www.mypage.com, I want when I’ll click the button the javascript to get the url automatically and play with it.
Here is the complete code I am using:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title></title>


        <script type="text/javascript" src="External/base64.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="External/canvas2image.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="External/jquery-1.6.2.min.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="build/html2canvas.js?221"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="build/jquery.plugin.html2canvas.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.hertzen.com/js/ganalytics-heatmap.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript">

            var date = new Date();
            var message,
            timeoutTimer,
            timer;

            var proxyUrl = "http://html2canvas.appspot.com";

            function addRow(table, field, val) {
                var tr = $('<tr />').appendTo($(table));

                tr.append($('<td />').css('font-weight', 'bold').text(field)).append($('<td />').text(val));



            }

            function throwMessage(msg, duration) {

                window.clearTimeout(timeoutTimer);
                timeoutTimer = window.setTimeout(function () {
                    message.fadeOut(function () {
                        message.remove();
                    });
                }, duration || 2000);

    To pass the current URL as a parameter, you should be able to use any of the following ways to get the current URL:

    • document.URL
    • window.location
    • window.location.href

    To use the current URL as opposed to the textbox value, change the following in your $('button').click() event:

    var url = $('#url').val();
    

    to:

    var url = document.URL; //or any of the other suggestions
