Parse query string in JavaScript [duplicate]

by

Here is a fast and easy way of parsing query strings in JavaScript:

function getQueryVariable(variable) {
    var query = window.location.search.substring(1);
    var vars = query.split('&');
    for (var i = 0; i < vars.length; i++) {
        var pair = vars[i].split('=');
        if (decodeURIComponent(pair[0]) == variable) {
            return decodeURIComponent(pair[1]);
        }
    }
    console.log('Query variable %s not found', variable);
}

Now make a request to page.html?x=Hello:

console.log(getQueryVariable('x'));
