Simple Syntax Question

[peterinwa]

urlText=location+"a";
if (urlText.indexOf("abc")!=-1){
alert("URL contains abc")}

This works fine. I want the code to check to see if the current URL contains a certain text string so I can place ads on only certain pages.

But to make it work I had to add the:

+"a"

to make urlText a text string. As I say, it works fine but is there a better, simpler way?

Thanks, Peter Novice

use

location.href

instead of just

location
