Hi,
I hope that's an easy question. How can I access the URL currently shown
in the browser? I have a RAP application that might run in an IFrame and
I need the complete page URL and not only the URL of my application.
Any hints?
Thanks.
Karsten

Hi,
thanks for the quick answer, now I have to think about another solution
for my problem.
Maybe you can answer the following question (or at least have an idea/
link).
I try to cover the following scenario:
1. RAP application runs in an IFrame
2. User clicks a button that opens a new browser window (from my RAP
application)
3. Some strange stuff is done in the new browser window (no RAP page)
4. Redirect in the new browser window that closes the new window
How can I monitor the lifecycle of the new window. On window close I'd
like to read the current URL of the new browser window (just before the
window is closed) and do some actions in my RAP application based on
that URL (and finally update my RAP UI).
Thanks for any hints/ help.

Hi Karsten,
there is no big difference from my previous answer - browser security
policies will prevent the reading of javascript window.location object
if the new window page does not come from the same domain with your
application. That's why, you first have to answer the question: Is the
"no RAP page" (and all sequential loaded pages by link) comes from the
same domain with your RAP application or not?
Best,
Ivan

Hi Ivan,
my RAP page runs in an IFrame and the IFrame can be in 'any' page (I
can't say who will use that RAP application). The new window will open a
page in another domain that will redirect to a page in the domain also
used for the RAP application.
Best,
Karsten

Hi Karsten,
to my knowledge, it's not possible to achieve this without a full
control over the new opened window (document).
Best,
Ivan
