Why is window.location undefined on all properties in Safari 6 and Mobile Safari (iOS 6)

Question

When I type

window.location

I get undefined on all properties.

Here's my console:

Answer 1

This code works in Safari (6.0.1) and earlier

    // Get location for REST TARGETS

    lcnURI = window.location.protocol + "//" + window.location.hostname + ":"
            + window.location.port + "/rest/";

It appears that window.location "goes out of context" when you look at in the log. But in place used it's fine.

Answer 2

I can confirm this (Version 6.0 (8536.25)). Seems to be a Safari bug, as far as I can tell.

Tested on jsbin (http://jsbin.com/enugoj/1/):

console.log(window.location);
console.log(window.location.pathname);​

Results in Safari's console:

Location
  ancestorOrigins: undefined
  hash: undefined
  host: undefined
  hostname: undefined
  href: undefined
  origin: undefined
  pathname: undefined
  port: undefined
  protocol: undefined
  search: undefined
  __proto__: LocationPrototype
