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); // ""
