Question

window.location = 'http://...';

I want to achieve:

var Path = 'http://...';

i tried to use:

var Path = window.location;

but I get, as this var value:

function Path() { [native code] }

while I want to have the location text string as its value..

Answer 1

Yes, window.location is an object, its href property returns the entire URL.

See here for a reference on the location object (location‘s other properties & functions can be useful): http://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/window.location
