Anybody know of an IE "toString" work around for this?

[Scooby08]

This works in all browsers but IE.. Would anybody happen to know of a work around?

 

var URL = window.location.href.toString();
if (URL == 'http://www.host.com/') {
$('#audio').show();
} else {
$('#audio').hide();
}

 

Thank you..

window.location.href is a string, you shouldn't use .toString() either way.

Ok.. If that's the case then I'm not understanding the issue here then.. The below still does not work in IE.. Works in all other browsers..

 

var URL = window.location.href;
if (URL == 'http://www.host.com/') {
$('#audio').show();
} else {
$('#audio').hide();
}

Try checking for only a portion of the string - IE probably returns something slightly different (in true IE fashion) to other browsers...

 

if (URL.indexOf('host.com') != -1) {

Well the deal is I'm just wanting to show the audio div on the home page..

 

So if var URL = 'http://www.host.com/contact/' the audio should not show..

Then you could use:

 

if (URL.match(/host\.com\/?$/))

 

That would match the URL ending with host.com (and an optional slash on the end).

Thanks a ton.. That helped get me going in the right direction..
