Remove querystring from URL

by

An easy way to get this is:

function getPathFromUrl(url) {
  return url.split("?")[0];
}

For those who also wish to remove the hash (not part of the original question) when no querystring exists, that requires a little bit more:

function stripQueryStringAndHashFromPath(url) {
  return url.split("?")[0].split("#")[0];
}

EDIT

@caub (originally @crl) suggested a simpler combo that works for both query string and hash (though it uses RegExp, in case anyone has a problem with that):

function getPathFromUrl(url) {
  return url.split(/[?#]/)[0];
}
