Magento: Get Current Url of the page

You can find the current url of the page in Magento using the below lines of code:

$currentUrl = $this->helper('core/url')->getCurrentUrl();


// Gives the base url of your magento installation
$baseUrl = Mage::getBaseUrl();


// Gives the url of media directory inside your magento installation
$mediaUrl = Mage::getBaseUrl('media');




Another way to get the current url is as below:

$urlRequest = Mage::app()->getFrontController()->getRequest();

$urlPart = $urlRequest->getServer('ORIG_PATH_INFO');

if(is_null($urlPart))

{

$urlPart = $urlRequest->getServer('PATH_INFO');

}

$urlPart = substr($urlPart, 1 );

$currentUrl = $this->getUrl($urlPart);
