The HTMLMediaElement.currentSrc
property contains the absolute URL of the chosen media resource. This could happen, for example, if the web server selects a media file based on the resolution of the user's display. The value is an empty string if the networkState
property is EMPTY
.
Syntax
var mediaUrl = audioObject.currentSrc;
Value
A DOMString
object containing the absolute URL of the chosen media source; this may be an empty string if networkState
is EMPTY
; otherwise, it will be one of the resources listed by the HTMLSourceElement
contained within the media element, or the value or src if no <source>
element is provided.
Example
var obj = document.createElement('video'); console.log(obj.currentSrc); // ""
