Question

I am working on how to get #pg value from URL using JavaScript, I tried

var url_string = "http://example.com/aus/#pg=0"; //window.location.href
var url = new URL(url_string);
var pg = url.searchParams.get("pg");
console.log(pg);

But not getting any result, Please help

....you should check the definition of search params ;)

For this snippet to work, you have to replace() # with ? to make a valid SearchParam:

var url_string = "http://example.com/aus/#pg=0"; //window.location.href
var url = new URL(url_string.replace('#', '?'));
var pg = url.searchParams.get("pg");
console.log(pg);

Why not simply read the hash property?

I know window.location.hash this could be the solution, but my snippet because he is asking why it not working, also this can be a string from <a> tag not a URL

If the string would come from a link, the same hash property applies. Randomly replacing stuff in the URL might cause problems, especially if the URL already contained a query string
