How to get everything before the hash from the address bar with Javascript?

I know I can get the hash value directly with this bit of code:

var hash = window.location.hash;

But is there anyway I can get the eve开发者_开发百科rything before the hash value directly as well?

Thank you!

Edit Using the Answer bellow: I am guessing the best way is..

var pageAddress = window.location.split('#')[0];

I use:

window.location.href.replace(window.location.hash, '');

you can try to subtract the has from the location

This took me 2s to Google: http://davidwalsh.name/javascript-window-location

You want to take the href and split it on the '#', easy enough to do in JS.

This may or may not be of interest, if you don't mind jQuery (I didn't write it):

Just combine the text before the hash

window.location.origin + window.location.pathname + window.location.search
