Use the window.location
Object
You can use the built-in window.location
object to retrieve the different part or portion of URL path in JavaScript, as demonstrated in the following example:
// If URL is http://www.example.com/products/search.php?q=ipad#featured
window.location.href // http://www.example.com/products/search.php?q=ipad#featured
window.location.protocol // http:
window.location.host // www.example.com (includes port if there is one e.g. 3000)
window.location.hostname // www.example.com
window.location.port // (provide port if there is one, otherwise empty string)
window.location.pathname // /products/search.php
window.location.search // ?q=ipad
window.location.hash // #featured
