How to check with javascript if connection is local host?

Question

I want to have a check in my javascript if the page loading up is on my local machine.

The reason why I want to do that is that when I developing I like to make sure

You could detect in one of your code behind pages with c#, like this:

if ((Request.Url.Host.ToLower() == "localhost"))
{
    // ..., maybe set an asp:Literal value that's in the js
}

Or if you want to do it from client script, you could check the value of window.location.host.

if (window.location.host == "localhost")
{
    // Do whatever
}

Hope this helps.
