jquery build http query string

Question

I have an object like this:

Object     id: "myid"     token: "sometoken" 

I need to build a HTTP query-string and get something like this:

http://domain.com/file.html?id=myid&token=sometoken 

Any ideas how I can do this?

Answer 1

​var obj = {         id    : 'myid',         token : 'sometoken'     };  alert($.param(obj)); 

You can use $.param() to create your query-string parameters. This will alert id=myid&token=sometoken.

This function is used internally to convert form element values into a serialized string representation.

Here is a demo: http://jsfiddle.net/RdGDD/

And docs: http://api.jquery.com/jquery.param

Answer 2

var obj = { id: 'myid', token: 'sometoken' }; var url = 'http://domain.com/file.html?' + $.param(obj);
