Get query string parameter using JavaScript

July 18, 2017 / Kannan / 0 Comments

Following code will help in fetching the value of a query string parameter.

function GetQueryStringParameter(parameter) {
    var search = location.search.substring(1);
    var queryStringParameters = JSON.parse('{"' + decodeURI(search).replace(/"/g, '\\"').replace(/&/g, '","').replace(/=/g, '":"') + '"}')
    return queryStringParameters[parameter];
}

Usage:

If URL is http://server/page.html?id=1

Then usage would be GetQueryStringParameters(“id”) which would return 1
