Parsing Group Path in Publisher

I have a script that parses the group path. Problem is that in ARIS Business Architect, the path is represented in the hosts format (i.e. "\" backslash). But in the ARIS Publisher web-based environment, the path is represented as "/" forward slash. I am trying to use the split command on the slash character, but this causes a problem in either of the environments. In the host environment, we must use path.split(" \\\\ ") (no spaces) in the publisher environment we muse use path.split("/")

Is there a better way to parse the path? If not, is there a way for the script to recognize if it is in the publisher environment vs. the Business Architect environment?

Well how about that, answered my own question :)

                 var oGroups = oPath.split("/");
                 if (Context.getEnvironment() == "STD"){
                     var oGroups = oPath.split("\\\\");
                 }
