I have seen lots of jQuery examples where parameter size and name are unknown.
My URL is only going to ever have 1 string:
http://example.com?sent=yes
I just want to detect:
sent
exist?Best solution here.
var getUrlParameter = function getUrlParameter(sParam) {
var sPageURL = window.location.search.substring(1),
sURLVariables = sPageURL.split('&'),
sParameterName,
i;
for (i = 0; i < sURLVariables.length; i++) {
sParameterName = sURLVariables[i].split('=');
if (sParameterName[0] === sParam) {
return sParameterName[1] === undefined ? true : decodeURIComponent(sParameterName[1]);
}
}
};
And this is how you can use this function assuming the URL is,
http://dummy.com/?technology=jquery&blog=jquerybyexample
.
var tech = getUrlParameter('technology');
var blog = getUrlParameter('blog');
