Easiest solution, works if you have already a tag or not, and removes it automatically so it wont keep adding equal tags, have fun

function changeURL(tag)
{
if(window.location.href.indexOf("?") > -1) {
    if(window.location.href.indexOf("&"+tag) > -1){

        var url = window.location.href.replace("&"+tag,"")+"&"+tag;
    }
    else
    {
        var url = window.location.href+"&"+tag;
    }
}else{
    if(window.location.href.indexOf("?"+tag) > -1){

        var url = window.location.href.replace("?"+tag,"")+"?"+tag;
    }
    else
    {
        var url = window.location.href+"?"+tag;
    }
}
  window.location = url;
}

THEN

changeURL("i=updated");
