The plain JavaScript String object has a split method.
'path1/path2'.split('/')
'http://www.somesite.com/#path1/path2'.split('#').pop().split('/')
-> ['path1', 'path2']
However, for the second case, it's generally not a good idea to do your own URL parsing via string or regex hacking. URLs are more complicated than you think. If you have a location object or an <a> element, you can reliably pick the parts of the URL out of it using the protocol, host, port, pathname, search and hash properties.

var path1 = "path1/path2".split('/')[0];
var path2 = "path1/path2".split('/')[1];
for the 2nd one, if you are getting it from your url you can do this.
var hash = window.location.hash;
var path1 = hash.split('#')[1].split('/')[0];
var path2 = hash.split('#')[1].split('/')[1];

var url = 'http://www.somesite.com/#path1/path2';
var arr = /#(.*)/g.exec(url);
alert(arr[1].split('/'));

You can use the javascript 'path1/path2'.split('/') for example. Gives you back an array where 0 is path1 and 1 is path2.
There is no need to use jquery
