That's what I want, an input tag that returns the URL. But I don't want user input, I want to grab the URL of the current page and return it automatically, invisible to the user. I would think that to be a simple matter, but it doesn't seem to be so.
I tried this: <input type="hidden" name="url" value=window.location.toString() /> but my HTML editor put quotes around the function and what I get back is the function as a string, not the output of the function.
