I am developing a toolbar app that runs via vbscriot (asp). All works fine but one thing. I need to be able to get the URL that is currently in the browser to get the toolbar app to run. I can't find anyway to do this. Request server variables won't work because I need the url as people "surf". I'm stumpted, any ideas??? Thanks.

Tut, Tut writing spyware toolbars eh!

Can't be done with ASP, as it has no access to the browser info. The only way is with javascript (window.location.href).

Is this a toolbar to run as a "addon/plugin" to the browser?

Thanks Chris, I had a feeling. Maybe I can use the javascript to run at the server, then call the function??? Anyway, it's part of the SearchBliss Webmaster Toolbar (conduit). Thanks!

The javascript could run and pass data back (xmlHTTP) to a server script on the same host, as with Google Analytics, but of course this isn't going to work once the client browsers has left the site.

Sounds like a plan


Unless you want to start writing a Firefox installer

Hi
I'm not that great with ASP but I've hacked together a simple server
side script that uses the Microsoft XML ServerXMLHTTP object. The
problem is that when other people use the script sometimes they get an
error that the object can not be created, due likely to the required
Microsoft XML libraries not being installed. I'd like to try creating
the XMLHTTP object in an if/else block so that if the object can not be
created then it tries another object creation approach... here is the
code I'm using to create the object:
