I want to split the website name and get only URL without the query string example: www.xyz.com/.php?id=1
the URL can be of any length so I want to split to get the URL to only xyz.com
able to split the URL and getting xyz.com/php?id=1 but how do I end the split and get only xyz.com
var domain2 = document.getElementById("domain_id").value.split("w.")[1];
You can use:
new URL()
for example -
var urlData = new URL("http://www.example.org/.php?id=1")
and than
urlData.host
which will only return the hostname
.host will include www., the OP mentioned he only wants xyz.com. Also, his example URL doesn't contain the schema (the http:// part).You can use a simple regex with match to capture the host in the way you want:
var url = 'www.xyz.com/.php?id=1';
var host = url.match(/www.(.*)\//)[1];
console.log(host)
Just adding it to other, you can also use this regex expression to capture everything up until the query string "?" like so;
This will also work if you want to grab any sub pages from url before the query string
var exp = new RegExp('^.*(?=([\?]))');
var url = exp.exec("www.xyz.com/.php?id=1");
var host = url[0];
console.log(host);
