How to use jquery to manipulate the querystring

Question

I have a select dropdown with id\'s mapped to values. On the onChange event I want to redirect to the same url but with \'id=value\' appended to the querystring.

How do

Answer 1

setting window.location.search will update the url's query string (and overwrite a value if it already exits)

$('#selector').change(function(){  
  window.location.search = "id=" + $(this).val();
});
