Title
Body
I'm trying to find a relatively easy and reliable method to extract the base URL from a string variable using JavaScript (or jQuery). For example, given something like: http://www.sitename.com/article/2009/09/14/this-is-an-article/ I'd like to get: http://www.sitename.com/ Is a regular expression the best bet? If so, what statement could I use to assign the base URL extracted from a given string to a new variable? I've done some searching on this, but everything I find in the JavaScript world seems to revolve around gathering this information from the actual document URL using location.host or similar.
