How to get current url along with query string in jQuery

Question

I want current url path along with its query string.

I have tried below but not getting desired output.

var pathname = window.location.pathname; // Returns path only
var url = window.location.href;

Note : query string is optional here if there is no query string then it should provide pathname only.

I want /Contact/Index?text=aa, TIA.

I got the answer its window.location.pathname+window.location.search.substr(1); — , Sep 06 '17 at 07:16

In jQuery you can do

$(location).attr('href')

The location object also contains properties, like host, hash, protocol, and pathname.

So, why would you use that over `location.href`? – Cerbrus Sep 06 '17 at 07:14
Because he asked for `jQuery`? – Red Sep 06 '17 at 07:14

If I asked for a way to bake a cake with an industrial steel furnace, wouldn't you tell me to just use a normal oven? – Cerbrus Sep 06 '17 at 07:15

No i woudn't. Because I would be curious how the cake tasted. – Red Sep 06 '17 at 07:18
Rather "well done", probably. – Cerbrus Sep 06 '17 at 07:19
The cake probably will be baked in light speed time. That's an advantage. – Red Sep 06 '17 at 07:21

This window.location.pathname will give you the path or the url.

It does not return the query string, he also wants that – Carsten Løvbo Andersen Sep 06 '17 at 07:21
