Hi Everyone!
What is the correct way to pull out just the path from a URL using JavaScript?
Example:
I have URL
http://www.somedomain.com/account/search?filter=a#top
but I would just like to get this portion
/account/search
I am using jQuery if there is anything there that can be leveraged.
Thanks in advance
Hi Royce!
There is a property of the built-in window.location object that will provide that.
// If URL is http://www.somedomain.com/account/search?filter=a#top
window.location.pathname // /account/search
// For reference:
window.location.host // www.somedomain.com (includes port if there is one)
window.location.hostname // www.somedomain.com
window.location.hash // #top
window.location.href // http://www.somedomain.com/account/search?filter=a#top
window.location.port // (empty string)
window.location.protocol // http:
window.location.search // ?filter=a
