Regular Expressions in JavaScript for URL Capture

Question

I am not too good with Regular Expressions in Javascript. Does anyone know an efficient way to capture the last portion of a URL???

I have the following URL:

<         


        

Answer 1

There are built in methods for this:

window.location.pathname.split("/").pop()

This will get everything after the domain name (window.location.pathname), then split it by forward slashes (split("/")), then return the last item of the array returned by split(), (pop()).
