How would I go about trimming/stripping the URL down to the page name...
So: http://www.BurtReynoldsMustache.com/whatever/whoever/apage.html
Would become: apage.html
Any ideas?
you do not need jquery:
var url = window.location.href;
var page = url.substring(url.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
Edit: a good point of the possible query string:
// it might be from browser & / anywhere else
var url = window.location.href;
url = url.split('#').pop().split('?').pop();
var page = url.substring(url.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
ok, if the location object is available, use pathname gives better result as show below, however, a url can be a string or something directly from text field or span/label. So above solution should have its place.
