How to insert javascript variables into a URL

Question

var a = 1;
var b = 2;
var mylink = "http://website.com/page.aspx?list=' + a + '&sublist=' + b + '";

This doesn't work. Is there a simple way to insert these other variables into the url query?

Answer 1

In modern JavaScript standards we are using ${var} :

var a = 1;
var b = 2;
var mylink = `http://website.com/page.aspx?list=${a}&sublist=${b}`;
