How do I show item's link in item.php was created by iLLeT

I want to use a retweet button, but I need the URL to the page it is currently on.

Code:

    {
        "url": "<?php  LINK TO THIS PAGE ?>",
        "title": "<?php echo $this->escape($this->fields['title']->display); ?>"
    }

Anybody know how to get the items url?

I got these from the Joomla docs website.
docs.joomla.org/JFactory/getURI
docs.joomla.org/JURI/getInstance

This worked:

Code:

<?php 
	$u =& JFactory::getURI(); 
	echo 'URI is: ' . $u->toString() . "\n"; 
	?>

and this worked:

Code:

<?php 
	$u =& JURI::getInstance();
	echo 'URI is: ' . $u->toString() . "\n";
	?>

These both display this on the page (for example):

URI is: www.joomla15.test/index.php?option=com_f...guidelines&Itemid=53

I tried using:
FlexicontentHelperRoute::getItemRoute()
and could not get it to work properly.
Could not figure it out.

The problem I see here is the length of the URL. That would take up a whole tweet!

Got to be a better way, IMO.

I'm working with Anton at WOWjoomla.com to enhance his Digg motivator for tweeting, blogging, email recommendations, etc.

Perhaps he'll have some insight into this.

It depends on the alias you choose, otherwise there's an option in tweetmeme that auto-shorten urls
