Location: host property
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The host
property of the Location
interface is a string containing the host, which is the hostname
, and then, if the port of the URL is nonempty, a ":"
, followed by the port
of the URL. If the URL does not have a hostname
, this property contains an empty string, ""
.
See URL.host
for more information.
Value
A string.
Examples
js
const anchor = document.createElement("a");
anchor.href = "https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Location.host";
console.log(anchor.host === "developer.mozilla.org");
anchor.href = "https://developer.mozilla.org:443/en-US/Location.host";
console.log(anchor.host === "developer.mozilla.org");
// The port number is not included because 443 is the scheme's default port
anchor.href = "https://developer.mozilla.org:4097/en-US/Location.host";
console.log(anchor.host === "developer.mozilla.org:4097");
