As3: Capture the HREF, Pathname, Host, userAgent

/ Published in: ActionScript 3

Here's how I was able to capture the HREF of a page using actionscript

Expand | Embed | Plain Text

//Here's a list of helpful items to capture
var pageURL:String      = ExternalInterface.call('window.location.href.toString');
var pageHost:String     = ExternalInterface.call('window.location.hostname.toString');
var pagePath:String     = ExternalInterface.call('window.location.pathname.toString');
var pageProtocol:String = ExternalInterface.call('window.location.protocol.toString');
var userAgent:String    = ExternalInterface.call('window.navigator.userAgent.toString');
var platform:String     = ExternalInterface.call('window.navigator.platform.toString');
 
 
private function getQueryString():String
{
     var query:String = ExternalInterface.call("window.location.pathname.toString");
     //ExternalInterface.call("window.location.href.toString");
     return query;
}

This is possible only when allowScriptAccess is set to"always" in tag but in most of the website like myspace they set allowScriptAccess to samedomain and in this case we are not allowed to use ExternalInterface.
