I'm having a similar(?) problem elsewhere - I want to slice a string using a variable as one of the slice() parameters, but javascript doesn't read the variable. Here's my code:

var x = '/unwanted_directory_in_URL/';
var y = x.length;
URL = URL.slice(y);

My javascript knowledge is limited. The question in both cases is how to insert a variable where js is expecting a hard-coded value.
