What's an easy way to get the url in the current window minus the domain name?

Question

My Javascript ain't so hot, so before I get into some messy string operations, I thought I'd ask:

If the current url is: "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/ask"

What's a good way to to just get: "/questions/ask" ?

Basically I want a string that matches the Url without the domain or the "http://"

alert(window.location.pathname);

Here's some documentation for you for window.location.
