javascript - Get ID from URL with jQuery

Question

I've got a url like this:

http://www.site.com/234234234

I need to grab the Id after /, so in this case 234234234

How can i do this easily?

Answer 1

Get a substring after the last index of /.

var url = 'http://www.site.com/234234234';
var id = url.substring(url.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
alert(id); // 234234234

It's just basic JavaScript, no jQuery involved.
