Hi
Can we list the currently open website (in firefox)
Because Task Manager shows the name of currently focused website name in application tab, and in process tab we see its respected process (firefox.exe)
Using cmd - tasklist & ps> process shows me only process list (as mentioned above)
But i am interested to get the list of website which are currently open in browser (specifically firefox).. i guess if Task manager (application tab) is able to show it, then via Ps or WMI we can get it same.
I have attached screen print for better clarity.

We can get one thing out of this. And that is Window Title.
PS C:\Users\Bryan> $a.MainWindowTitleMonitoring Open URL - Powershell.com - Powershell Scripts, Tips and Resources - Nightly (13.0a1)
Getting the URL isn't the same as getting the title.
Hey
thanks Bryan.. you made my day... it worked.. but only thing is i need to add sleep function so that after every (say) interval it can capture the currently focuses URL (else it will point to the old cached URL only)
Thank you once again
This works for Internet Explorer
while ($true) {
Get-Process iexplore | select -expandproperty MainWindowTitle
Start-Sleep -Seconds 5
}
Change the process and the time interval
hey thanks R Siddaway
It worked fantastic for me..
This is really helpful info.
I am currently trying to find a way to close individual tabs within firefox. I'm not totally sure that it's even possible, but being a new powershell user I'm willing to waste a little time looking just to understand the shell better.
