This is a simple way that I use when I need to:

String fileName = request.getRequestURI();
if (request.getQueryString() != null) {
fileName += '?' + request.getQueryString();
}
URL generatedURL = new URL(request.getScheme(),
request.getServerName(),
request.getServerPort(),
fileName);
out.println(generatedURL.toString());

It first determines whether there are any QueryString parameters -- if there is then they are appended to the string. Then it generates the URL by constructing a URL object. You can print the URL via the generatedURL.toString() method.

Note, I hope you meant Java (JSP) and not JavaScript...

Regards.

You need to import the net package.

import java.net.URL;

Its considered bad practise to simple include an directory or set of directories. You should really just import the class.
