window.location.href is Redirecting but not getting URL

CODE

<script>
  window.location.href = 'SomeSite.php';   // THIS WORKS
  var x = window.location.href;            // THIS DOES NOT!  
  alert("X : ",x);                         // Shows X : 
</script>

I have no function or Anything. I just run this Script Code in my HTML File and it used to work for Months. I have no idea why it isn't working right now. How is it that Im able to redirect the page using window.location.href but not get the current URL?

Solution

  • Instead of alert("X : ",x); Try using alert("X : " + x);. This should solve it. When you put a comma inside the alert function, it might consider it as another parameter, so you must concatenate using "+".
