Split string at character in JavaScript

Question

I have three links :

"http//example.com/product/iphone?source=ac"
"http//example.com/product/samsung?source=tz"
"http//example.com/product/sony?source=sn"

I want to split the string to get two variables like so:

var link1 = 'http//example.com/product/iphone';
var link2 = '?source=ac'

// The others are similar
//var link1 = 'http//example.com/product/samsung';
//var link2 = '?source=tz'
//var link1 = 'http//example.com/product/sony';
//var link2 = '?source=sn'

Please give me your opinion, and help me in this case, I'm really new to javascript. It was difficult. Thank you everyone

Here is a regex based approach using match:

var urls = ["http://example.com/product/iphone?source=ac", "https://example.com/product/iphone"];
for (var i=0; i < urls.length; ++i) {
    var parts = urls[i].match(/https?:\/\/[^?]+|\?.*/g);
    console.log(urls[i] + "\nurl => " + parts[0] + ", query => " + parts[1]);
}
