browserurl

For some reason "%browserurl%" works only for Internet Explorer.

Can you tell why it doesn't work for chrome and firefox?

There is an option to control grabbing the url from Firefox, you'll find it at the top of the Capture Options tab.

With regards to chrome -- looks like they must have changed something in a recent update that has broken it -- I will look into it and try to fix, assuming it's not google being who they are and deciding they don't need to support such a feature anymore.

Google does what they want. They made it so this info is no longer available.  You can't reach a human at google so no way to complain or get them to fix it.
