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

Try using the split function:

var url = location.href.split('?')[0] + '?;id=' + $(this).val();

split returns a list made up of the string split up by the string (like '?'), with that string removed.
