What is causing the error `string.split is not a function`?

document.location isn't a string.

You're probably wanting to use document.location.href or document.location.pathname instead.


Change this...

var string = document.location;

to this...

var string = document.location + '';

This is because document.location is a Location object. The default .toString() returns the location in string form, so the concatenation will trigger that.


You could also use document.URL to get a string.


run this

// you'll see that it prints Object
console.log(typeof document.location);

you want document.location.toString() or document.location.href


maybe

string = document.location.href;
arrayOfStrings = string.toString().split('/');

assuming you want the current url
