Hi there, does anybody have a nifty solution to catch the address bar of firefox?

Just the title bar is not enough for the script I'm working on because it differs from the url to often.

The best way I've found is to use the F6 key to select the address bar. The F6 key toggles between the address bar and the main window.

Code:
F3::
Loop, 2
{
Send, {F6}
ControlGetFocus, CurrentFocus, A
If CurrentFocus = MozillaWindowClass1
Break
}
Return

You can also use Alt+D or Ctrl+L, but if the address bar is not available these will open the Open Web Location window.

Note: The address bar is not the only controls that bears the name MozillaWindowClass1. It's safer to press F6 before checking to see if the current control is MozillaWindowClass1.

Unfortunately, I don't think there's a way to get the contents of that address bar in Firefox. Has anyone found a way to do this?

Using my method, you'd have to use the clipboard.

Code:
F3::
Loop, 2
{
Send, {F6}
ControlGetFocus, CurrentFocus, A
If CurrentFocus = MozillaWindowClass1
Break
}
Send, ^c
Return
