Get url to external script

Published in: JavaScript

This could be included inside the external script itself, and compared to window.location if the returned URL were relative.

Plain TextExpand

function getPathToSelf() {
	var myName = /(^|[\/\\])path\.js(\?|$)/;
	var scripts = document.getElementsByTagName("script");
	for (var i = 0; i < scripts.length; i++) {
		var src;
		if (src = scripts[i].getAttribute("src")) {
			if (src.match(myName)) {
				return src;
			}
		}
	}
}
alert(getPathToSelf());
