Working with URI in JavaScript

Question

I have a URL like below :

http://localhost:1692/fa/Help.aspx#Help

the code below returns that :

    alert(document.URL);

I only want to get the http://localhost:1692 part of this URL.

How can I get it with jQuery or JavaScript?

my problem is about that port...some url s like this local url have that port. — SilverLight

If you want the protocol too, then Esailija's answer is the ticket. MDN on window.location — steveax

Try this:

alert( location.protocol + "//" + location.host )
