Replacing everything with Javascript

Currently I have the following structure (the ID at the end changes based on the code given by the shortner)

example.com/7NGOWX
example.com/7iTAXM

With javascript I am current using this code to change the url but it leaves the id.

<script>
    document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace(/example.com/g, '');
</script>

How can I make it so that it removes the entire url instead of leaving things like 7NGOWX 7iTAXM behind?

Another option can be to use the URL() constructor and have it do the work.

for example

var url = new URL("http://example.com/7iTAXM");
console.log(url.pathname.substring(1));

You need to use a little regex syntax:

example\.com\/\w+
  • \w+ matches any word character (equal to [a-zA-Z0-9_])
<script>
    document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace(/example\.com\/\w+/g, '');
</script>

You can use regex like /example\.com\/\w+/ , \w+ match any alphanumerical continuous word.
