Default Retrieve current web page address

Please Login to Remove!

All,

I am looking for a way to retrieve the URL for the current web page if the browser is open. The browser may even be open in the background but want to be able to look into the browser and see what page is open and grab the URL and or the canonical form of the URL to just show the domain (www.test.com)

I have searched every where including google, blackberry.com and here and have found nothing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Find/Open your desired webpage

Menu - Page Address (at the bottom)

Then you have the option of copying the address or sending the address.

Thanks, I know the manual method.

What I am looking for is a way to pull the current web page in my code to set it as a string variableto use later in my application and compare other data to for an an app that I am developing.

Thanks in advance.

No worries, reading my first post I could see how I didn't clarify that I was trying to find the code for developing an app...and some people may not know where to find the current page or the address for a link so it was not an unreasonable response.

Anyone else know how to do this?
