Hi all,

I need to get the current url of iframe (not the first source of iframe). If iframe is in same domain, then it's easy but iframe won't be in same domain. Also, I don't need to use only iframe anyother control will be work for me. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help.

It depends Current Url of your IFrame is of the same Domain or not.

If the set Url is of the same Domain then you may try below code to get it.

JavaScript

var currentUrl = document.getElementById("MyIframeId").contentWindow.location.href;

But in case if it is set to some other Domain Url, For Example - "http://www.codeProject.com", then I doubt you will be able to get it.

Unfortunately it won't be same domain. However, I don't need to use iframe especially. Anyother control or hmtl tag can work for me.
