Is there any method to get the URL without query string?
JavascriptUrlJavascript Problem Overview
I have a URL like http://localhost/dms/mduserSecurity/UIL/index.php?menu=true&submenu=true&pcode=1235
.
I want to get the URL without the query string: http://localhost/dms/mduserSecurity/UIL/index.php
.
Is there any method for this in JavaScript? Currently I am using document.location.href
, but it returns the complete URL.
Javascript Solutions
Solution 1 - Javascript
Try this:
let path = window.location.href.split('?')[0]
console.log({path})
Solution 2 - Javascript
Read about Window.location
and the Location
interface:
const urlPieces = [location.protocol, '//', location.host, location.pathname]
let url = urlPieces.join('')
console.log({urlPieces, url})
Solution 3 - Javascript
location.toString().replace(location.search, "")
Solution 4 - Javascript
var url = window.location.origin + window.location.pathname;
Solution 5 - Javascript
If you also want to remove hash, try this one: window.location.href.split(/[?#]/)[0]
Solution 6 - Javascript
Here's an approach using the URL() interface:
new URL(location.pathname, location.href).href
Solution 7 - Javascript
Try:
document.location.protocol + '//' +
document.location.host +
document.location.pathname;
(NB: .host
rather than .hostname
so that the port gets included too, if necessary)
Solution 8 - Javascript
just cut the string using split (the easy way):
var myString = "http://localhost/dms/mduserSecurity/UIL/index.php?menu=true&submenu=true&pcode=1235"
var mySplitResult = myString.split("?");
alert(mySplitResult[0]);
Solution 9 - Javascript
To get every part of the URL except for the query:
var url = (location.origin).concat(location.pathname).concat(location.hash);
Note that this includes the hash as well, if there is one (I'm aware there's no hash in your example URL, but I included that aspect for completeness). To eliminate the hash, simply exclude .concat(location.hash)
.
It's better practice to use concat
to join Javascript strings together (rather than +
): in some situations it avoids problems such as type confusion.
Solution 10 - Javascript
Use properties of window.location
var loc = window.location;
var withoutQuery = loc.hostname + loc.pathname;
var includingProtocol = loc.protocol + "//" + loc.hostname + loc.pathname;
You can see more properties at https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/window.location
Solution 11 - Javascript
How about this: location.href.slice(0, - ((location.search + location.hash).length))
Solution 12 - Javascript
Here are two methods:
<script type="text/javascript">
var s="http://localhost/dms/mduserSecurity/UIL/index.php?menu=true&submenu
=true&pcode=1235";
var st=s.substring(0, s.indexOf("?"));
alert(st);
alert(s.replace(/\?.*/,''));
</script>
Solution 13 - Javascript
Just add these two lines to $(document).ready in JS as follow:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("div.sidebar nav a").removeClass("active");
$('nav a[href$="'+ window.location.pathname.split("?")[0] +'"]').addClass('active');
});
it is better to use the dollar sign ($) (End with)
$('nav a[href$
instead of (^) (Start with)
$('nav a[href^
because, if you use the (^) sign and you have nested URLs in the navigation menu, (e.g "/account" and "/account/roles")
It will active both of them.
Solution 14 - Javascript
window.location.href.split("#")[0].split("?")[0]
Solution 15 - Javascript
You could make use of the URL constructor like this:
const href = 'http://localhost/dms/mduserSecurity/UIL/index.php?menu=true&submenu=true&pcode=1235'; // document.location.href
const url = new URL(href);
const noSearchUrl = href.replace(url.search, '');
console.log(noSearchUrl);
Solution 16 - Javascript
If you are using navigation bar and want to get the pure url after clicking on the side bar navigation, then the following code might be helpful:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("div.sidebar nav a").removeClass("active");
var urlPath = window.location.pathname.split("?")[0];
var nav = $('div.sidebar nav a').filter(function () {
return $(this).attr('href').toLowerCase().indexOf(urlPath.toLocaleLowerCase()) > -1;
});
$(nav).each(function () {
if ($(this).attr("href").toLowerCase() == urlPath.toLocaleLowerCase())
$(this).addClass('active');
});
});
