RegEx for omitting part of URL to ahead of domain name

I need to do the following n javascript using regex and split function:

input: http://www.google.com/some-page.html output: http://www.google.com

I tried the following, but it doesnt work, it just returns "http://www.google." 

href = href.split("com/")[0];

I am sure I must have made some noob mistake but sorry I am new to this! Thanks!

Got it! I used this:

 href = href.match("(http:\/\/.+.com)")[0];

/https?:\/\/[^/]*/.exec('http://www.google.com/search-page.html')

output:

["http://www.google.com"]

I think you can use this:

var firstPart = href.match(/^(.+?:\/\/.+?)\//)[1];
