<tip subject="JS pathname: IE vs Mozilla" author="Anthony Baratta">
When using the pathname property, IE (5.5) and Mozilla (1.1) return the
string differently. For example:
<a href="/path/to/page.html"
onclick="PathAlert(this.pathname);"
class="Headline"
style="text-decoration: none;">
<script language="JavaScript">
function PathAlert(varPathName) {
alert("HREF Path = " + varPathName);
return true;
}
</script>
With IE, you get: "HREF Path = path/to/page.html"
With Mozilla, you get: "HREF Path = /path/to/page.html"
Sigh. Hope this helps someone.
