If the popup is from a third party domain (such as google.com), then you can't access the location.href property of the popup because of the "same origin policy".

If it's in the same domain, then you can get the URL by doing this on the parent window: 

popUpWindow.location.href

You can call a function onclick and have the url there as a variable:

<a href="#" onclick="my_function()">Click Here</a>

And then you can do anything you want with the url:

function my_function()
{
    var url = 'http://www.google.com';
    window.open(url ,'MyWindow',width=600,height=300);
    //show the url in an element
    return false;
}
