I have this URL:
site.fwx?position=1&archiveid=5000&columns=5&rows=20&sorting=ModifiedTimeAsc
what I need is to be able to change the 'rows' url param value to something i specify, lets say 10. And if the 'rows' doesn't exist, I need to add it to the end of the url and add the value i've already specified (10).
I've extended Sujoy's code to make up a function.

function updateURLParameter(url, param, paramVal){
var newAdditionalURL = "";
var tempArray = url.split("?");
var baseURL = tempArray[0];
var additionalURL = tempArray[1];
var temp = "";
if (additionalURL) {
tempArray = additionalURL.split("&");
for (var i=0; i<tempArray.length; i++){
if(tempArray[i].split('=')[0] != param){
newAdditionalURL += temp + tempArray[i];
temp = "&";
}
}
}
var rows_txt = temp + "" + param + "=" + paramVal;
return baseURL + "?" + newAdditionalURL + rows_txt;
}
Function Calls:
var newURL = updateURLParameter(window.location.href, 'locId', 'newLoc');
newURL = updateURLParameter(newURL, 'resId', 'newResId');
window.history.replaceState('', '', updateURLParameter(window.location.href, "param", "value"));
Updated version that also take care of the anchors on the URL.
function updateURLParameter(url, param, paramVal)
{
var TheAnchor = null;
var newAdditionalURL = "";
var tempArray = url.split("?");
var baseURL = tempArray[0];
var additionalURL = tempArray[1];
var temp = "";
if (additionalURL)
{
var tmpAnchor = additionalURL.split("#");
var TheParams = tmpAnchor[0];
TheAnchor = tmpAnchor[1];
if(TheAnchor)
additionalURL = TheParams;
tempArray = additionalURL.split("&");
for (var i=0; i<tempArray.length; i++)
{
if(tempArray[i].split('=')[0] != param)
{
newAdditionalURL += temp + tempArray[i];
temp = "&";
}
}
}
else
{
var tmpAnchor = baseURL.split("#");
var TheParams = tmpAnchor[0];
TheAnchor = tmpAnchor[1];
if(TheParams)
baseURL = TheParams;
}
if(TheAnchor)
paramVal += "#" + TheAnchor;
var rows_txt = temp + "" + param + "=" + paramVal;
return baseURL + "?" + newAdditionalURL + rows_txt;
}
