JS/HTML5 remove url params from url

Question

i have an url like this

/users/?i=0&p=90

how can i remove in js the part from

? to 90

can any one show me some code?

EDIT

i mean doing this with window.location.href (so in browser url bar directly)

i tryed

function removeParamsFromBrowserURL(){
    document.location.href =  transform(document.location.href.split("?")[0]);
    return document.location.href;
}

also i would like to not make redirect, so just clean the url from ? to end

So you just want it to be /users/90, or nothing after /users/? — Sampson

document.location.href = transform(document.location.href); use any of the below answers for the transform itself. — Amadan

Errm... I meant more something along the lines of document.location.href = document.location.href.split("?")[0] (with transform being a metaphorical function indicating one of the answers below - it does not exist) — Amadan

function removeParamsFromBrowserURL(){
    return window.location.href.replace(/\?.*/,'');
}

should be ok but it redirects me

Of course it redirects. There is no way to do this without the redirect.

No, this function just returns the "clean" part of the window.lcoation.href

If you only want the /users/ portion:

var newLoc = location.href.replace( /\?.+$/, '' );

You could also split the string, and return the first portion:

var newLoc = location.href.split("?")[0];

Or you could match everything up to the question mark:

if ( matches = location.href.match( /^(.+)\?/ ) ) {
  alert( matches[1] );
}

One way is leftside = whole.split('?')[0], assuming there's no ? in the desired left side

http://jsfiddle.net/wjG5U/1/

This will remove ?... from the url and automatically reload the browser to the stripped url (can't get it to work in JSFiddle) I have the code below in a file, and put some ?a=b content manually then clicked the button.

<html>
  <head>
    <script type="text/javascript">
function strip() {
  whole=document.location.href;
  leftside = whole.split('?')[0];
  document.location.href=leftside;
}

    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <button onclick="strip()">Click</button>
  </body>
</html>

If you only want the /users/ portion, then you could just substring it:

var url = users/?i=0&p=90;
var urlWithNoParams = url.substring(0, url.indexOf('?') - 1);

That extracts the string from index 0 to the character just before the '?' character.

I had problems with #page back and forth referrals sticking in the url no matter which url redirect I used. This solved everything.

I used the script like this:

<script type="text/javascript">

function strip() {
  whole=document.location.href;
  leftside = whole.split('#')[0];
  document.location.href=leftside;
}
</script>
<a onclick="strip()" href="http://[mysite]/hent.asp" >Click here</a>
