get the base URL and file path from my windows URL by using Javascript

Question

Hi I tried to get the base URL and file path from my windows URL..But I cant get it..Please correct me..

The URL is:

http://sample.com:30023/portal/site/samples/index.jsp

The current output is: http://sample.com:30023/index.jsp?

The required output is: http://sample.com:30023/portal/site/samples/

Code used :

var baseURL = location.protocol + "//" + location.hostname + (location.port && ":" + location.port) + "/";

Answer 1

add location.pathname, so it becomes

var baseURL = location.protocol + "//" + location.hostname + (location.port && ":" + location.port) + location.pathname;

Also, why not simply use location.href to get the whole thing?
