window Location - only protocol, hostname and pathname


Say I have this URL:

http://www.domain.com/subpage/?somsearch#somehash?

Is there a standard way to get the following result, without hash and search:

http://www.domain.com/subpage/

This is how I do it now:

var windowLocation = window.location;
alert(windowLocation.protocol + '//' + windowLocation.hostname + windowLocation.pathname);

Solution

  • Thanks to Bergi, this is pretty simple:

    http://jsfiddle.net/8Vr7n/3/

    var url = "http://google.com/?search=bob#asdf";
    
    var shorterUrl = url.split("#")[0].split("?")[0];
    
    alert(shorterUrl);
