Is there any way to get from the article it's SEF URL?
<?php
$id = JFactory::getApplication()->input->getInt('id');
$article = JTable::getInstance("content");
?>
searching something like this:
<?php echo $article->somethingLikeCanonicalSEFURL; ?>
To get SEF URL, pass non-SEF URL through JRoute::_(). To get non-SEF URL, you can use ContentHelperRoute::getArticleRoute().
// Load route helper class.
JLoader::register('ContentHelperRoute', JPATH_SITE . '/components/com_content/helpers/route.php');
// Build non-SEF URL.
$nonSefLink = ContentHelperRoute::getArticleRoute($article->id . ':' . $article->alias, $article->catid, $article->language);
// Build SEF URL.
$sefLink = JRoute::_($nonSefLink);
ashould beanbut that, of itself, is not a worthwhile edit. (not worth the +2 rep reward) What you could have done was: condensedany way, changedit'stoits, removed all of the unnecessary<?phpand?>tags in the code blocks, reworded the English in the sentences. When you do wish to make an edit, please make it the "final edit" by fixing EVERYTHING possible.
