URL: port property

Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.

The port property of the URL interface is a string containing the port number of the URL, or the empty string if the port is the default for the protocol.

Note: If the URL object refers to a URL that doesn't contain an explicit port number (e.g., https://localhost) or contains a port number that's the default port number corresponding to the protocol part of the URL (e.g., https://localhost:443), then the value of the port property will be the empty string: ''.

Value

A string.
