How to get url path without $_GET parameters using javascript?

Question

If my current page is in this format...

http://www.mydomain.com/folder/mypage.php?param=value

Is there an easy way to get this

http://www.mydomain.com/folder/mypage.php

using javascript?

Answer 1

Don't do this regex and splitting stuff. Use the browser's built-in URL parser.

window.location.origin + window.location.pathname

And if you need to parse a URL that isn't the current page:

var url = document.createElement('a');
url.href = "http://www.example.com/some/path?name=value#anchor";
console.log(url.origin + url.pathname);

And to support IE (because IE doesn't have location.origin):

location.protocol + '//' + location.host + location.pathname;

Answer 2

Try to use split like

var url = "http://www.mydomain.com/folder/mypage.php?param=value";
var url_array = url.split("?");
alert(url_array[0]);    //Alerts http://www.mydomain.com/folder/mypage.php

Even we have many parameters in the GET , the first segment will be the URL without GET parameters.
