Get the new URL on window.popstate

Is there any way I can get the new page's url when the window.popstate is fired?

window.onpopstate(function (){
    newPageUrl = //get the new page's URL
})

Doesn't location.href work? – Feria

window.location.href.toString().split(window.location.host)[‌​1] – Monroe

Use this

window.onpopstate = function (){
    newPageUrl = location.href;
}

This is the right syntax: window.onpopstate = function() { } developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WindowEventHandlers/… – Liability

basically the route-change has registered by the time the event callback is hit. So the currentUrl is the newUrl already – Sparkle
