Display filename on page

[mobius1983]

Hi everyone,

Hope someone can help, I need to display the name of the file that is being displayed on all the pages of my company intranet (e.g index.htm, contents.htm)

I can get it using the window.location.href and then only using any text that is after the last '/'. This works ok apart from on the first page because you do not specify the page name (e.g

http://www.tek-tips.com/

returns nothing because there is no page name specified in the URL).

I am also not sure if this method would work if the page was inside a frameset.

If anyone knows of a way you can get the page filename I would be forever in your debt!

Thanks in advance
Nick.

Nick,

Do you have any server-side languages available to you? Certainly what you ask is possible in JSP (and most likely ASP and PHP too)... You say you are using this for the company intranet, so you could use something like Tomcat or IIS to make this possible.

As far as I know, however, it isn't possible (client-side) to tell the filename of a default document (for example, default.htm, index.html, etc) that is loaded when you visit a URL without specifying a filename.

Hope this helps,

Dan
