using window.location.pathname

[superunknownman]

I was trying to capture the pathname only when using

var from= window.location .pathname;

and I want to lose the filename. Is there another way for me to get just the path?

[rnd me]

function Path() {
    var tob = {href:window.location.href.toString()};
    tob.domain = document.domain;
    var lr = tob.href.toString().split(/[\/\\]/g);
    var tqs = window.location.search;
    tob.qs = tqs ? tqs : "";
    tob.file = lr.last();
    tob.path = lr.slice(0, -1).join("/") + "/";
    tob['char'] = document.characterSet;
    tob.ext = tob.file.match(/(?:\.)[\d\w]{0,4}/)[0];
    return tob;
}
alert(Path().path)

or-
var url=location.hr ef.replace(/\\/g,'/');
alert(url.subst ring(0,url.last IndexOf('/')))

(You only need the replace for local files on windows)
