Javascript current url

Question

I am using javascript. How do I get the path of the current URL and assign it to my code? Here is my code :

$(document).ready(function() {
  $(".share").hideshare({
    link: "current_url",
    position: "top"
  });
});

Answer 1

Try window.location.href

$(document).ready(function() {
  $(".share").hideshare({
    link: window.location.href,
    position: "top"
  });
});

Answer 2

Try with window.location.href or document.URL object

$(document).ready(function() {
  $(".share").hideshare({
    link: window.location.href,
    position: "top"
  });
});

Answer 3

Something like the following should do it:

$(document).ready(function() {
  $(".share").hideshare({
    link: location.href
    position: "top"
  });
});

The window.location (also can be referenced by location) property contains many utility functions related to the current page.

Such as window.location.hash for the anchor or window.location.search for the query string

Answer 4

You can use the window.location.href or window.location.path expressions if you don't need the full url.

Answer 5

Use window.location.href or window.location.pathname expressions if you don't need the full url. I mean

$(document).ready(function() {
  $(".share").hideshare({
    link: "window.location.href/window.location.pathname",
    position: "top"
  });
});

Answer 6

To get Current URL, you can use:

var pathname = window.location.pathname; // Returns path only
var url      = window.location.href;     // Returns full URL
