Strip Query String from url

[Scott]

Below is a script I use to strip everything from a url except the actual
page. So for example, "http://www.cnn.com/mypage.asp?article=5&id=20"
becomes "mypage.asp".

I'm looking for a script that will strip any querystring from a url if it
exists, so my result would be "http://www.cnn.com/mypage.asp".

Can someone help me modify my script below to achieve this result? I'm
horrible with string functions.


CODE to Get URL **************

Right(Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME"),Len(Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME"))-InStrRev(Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME"),"/"))

<% 'vbscript
t = "http://www.cnn.com/mypage.asp"
response.write stripFromQmark(t)
%>

<script runat='server' language='jscript'>
function stripFromQmark(x){
return x.replace(/\?.*/,'')
}

Dim strRSV
strRSV = Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME")
Dim strURL
strURL = Left(strRSV,InStr(strRSV,"?") -1)

Thank you.

The SCRIPT_NAME server variable does not contain query string. Nor does it
contain protocol or host name it only contains the absolute virtual path to
the script.

If you intend this for a link, simply use this:

<a href="<%=Request.ServerVariables("URL")%>"> ... </a>

No need to parse anything.

Certainly, but is it useful to link tot the page itself?

Yes, especially when the querystring has session-related nonsense in it,
such as the way youtube embeds the search query in subsequent links. Perhaps
I should have written it this way:

<a href="<%=Request.ServerVariables("URL")%>">Permalink</a>

Yes. I see some sense in an inc file with:

<form
....
