Me too. And it is a somewhat uncommon task for (client-side)
javascript. Normally a server program would parse this kind of data.

Indeed, but that can be done using serverside javascript
as requested and on topic:

<% // javascript

var url = 'http://aa.xx/bb/cc/dd.html';

var temp = url.split('/');
var file = temp.pop();
temp.push('');
var path = temp.join('/');

%>
