Get the URL of the frontmost tab from Chrome on OS X?

Question

Is there a way to do this to Chrome?

tell application "Google Chrome"
 return URL of front document as string
end tell

... doesn't work.

Answer 1

Now that Chrome (7+) supports AppleScript, you can do this:

tell application "Google Chrome"
    get URL of active tab of first window
end tell

Note: "first window" refers to the frontmost window.
