196463 - Documentation for the location object does not mention its attributes and methods

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Documentation Graveyard :: Web Developer, defect)

Description

The documentation as written indicates that the location object is just a
string. None of the properties or methods that are availble are given, In fact I
originally thought that you weren't supporting them (since they are DOM Level 0)
and originally began to file a bug asking that they be added as an enhancement.
When my search indicated that the feature I was going to ask be added was
already implemented, I decided to file this bug instead.

Reproducible: Always

That page was updated a couple of times over the years and contains properties and methods of the location object:
