There are a few ways to get the URL of a popup login window.

One way is to use the `window.open()` method. The `window.open()` method takes two arguments: the URL of the window to open, and a name for the window. The following code opens a new popup window with the URL of the login page:

```plaintext
window.open("https://example.com/login", "login_window");
```

Once the popup window is open, you can get the URL of the login page by using the `window.location.href` property. The `window.location.href` property returns the URL of the current window. The following code gets the URL of the login page:

```plaintext
var login_url = window.location.href;
```

Another way to get the URL of a popup login window is to use the `window.name` property. The `window.name` property returns the name of the current window. The following code gets the name of the popup window:

```plaintext
var login_window = window.name;
```

Once you have the name of the popup window, you can get the URL of the login page by using the `window.opener.location.href` property. The `window.opener.location.href` property returns the URL of the window that opened the current window. The following code gets the URL of the login page:

```plaintext
var login_url = window.opener.location.href;
```
