If my current page is in this format...
http://www.mydomain.com/folder/mypage.php?param=value
Is there an easy way to get this
http://www.mydomain.com/folder/mypage.php
using javascript?

Don't do this regex and splitting stuff. Use the browser's built-in URL parser.
window.location.origin + window.location.pathname
And if you need to parse a URL that isn't the current page:
var url = document.createElement('a');
url.href = "http://www.example.com/some/path?name=value#anchor";
console.log(url.origin + url.pathname);
And to support IE (because IE doesn't have location.origin):
location.protocol + '//' + location.host + location.pathname;

I have to agree, this accomplishes exactly what I needed without any unnecessary steps. Thank you.

this doesn't work in Opera 12 (and earlier) and in IE (w3schools.com/jsref/prop_loc_origin.asp)
Try to use split like
var url = "http://www.mydomain.com/folder/mypage.php?param=value";
var url_array = url.split("?");
alert(url_array[0]); //Alerts http://www.mydomain.com/folder/mypage.php
Even we have many parameters in the GET , the first segment will be the URL without GET parameters.
This is DEMO

Thank you, just what I needed! I did not mention it in the question, but this also works when no parameters are passed =)

How would your string-based solution handle a malformed URL, such as
http://www.domain.com/page#anchor?parameter ? Using the document object and it's api is a more robust solution IMOtry this:
var url=document.location.href;
var mainurl=url.split("?");
alert(mainurl[0]);

var options = decodeURIComponent(window.location.search.slice(1))
.split('&')
.reduce(function _reduce (/*Object*/ a, /*String*/ b) {
b = b.split('=');
a[b[0]] = b[1];
return a;
}, {});
