I tested that html page code and it works fine.  I created a test document if you want to check it out.  Just click the green rectangle to have the url appear...

http://www.nedwebs.com/Flash/welcome.html

The swf contains a button mc named "btn" and a textfield named "url".  The code in the swf file is as follows...

btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, traceURL);

function traceURL(evt:MouseEvent):void {
    var urlPath = ExternalInterface.call("windowhref");
    url.text = urlPath;
}

You should be testing on a server using the html page if you are not already doing that.

As far as I can tell, the call method is supposed to call a javascript function, an dthat function in turn should return a value.  So maybe you need to create a function in the javascript code that returns the window.location.href string and call that function.

Thank you. its woking...but...

actually  i'm doing like domain chekker.

i'm calling original swf into dummy swf through using urlLoader.

so my dummy swf file should run in html or aspx page, but if any one copy that original swf path & enter that path in browser when original swf redirect to my homepage like www.mydomain.com.

how to do that..
