Last segment of URL in jquery

Question

How do I get the last segment of a url? I have the following script which displays the full url of the anchor tag clicked:

$(\".tag_name_goes_here\").live(\         


        

Answer 1

// https://x.com/boo/?q=foo&s=bar = boo
// https://x.com/boo?q=foo&s=bar = boo
// https://x.com/boo/ = boo
// https://x.com/boo = boo

const segment = new 
URL(window.location.href).pathname.split('/').filter(Boolean).pop();
console.log(segment);

Works for me.
