JavaScript query string [closed]

Answer 1

tl;dr solution on a single(ish) line of code using vanilla javascript

var queryDict = {}
location.search.substr(1).split("&").forEach(function(item) {
    queryDict[item.split("=")[0]] = item.split("=")[1]
})

For querystring ?a=1&b=2&c=3&d&eit returns:

> queryDict
a: "1"
b: "2"
c: "3"
d: undefined
e: undefined

multi-valued keys and encoded characters?

See the original answer at How can I get query string values in JavaScript?

"?a=1&b=2&c=3&d&e&a=5&a=t%20e%20x%20t&e=http%3A%2F%2Fw3schools.com%2Fmy%20test.asp%3Fname%3Dståle%26car%3Dsaab"
> queryDict
a: ["1", "5", "t e x t"]
b: ["2"]
c: ["3"]
d: [undefined]
e: [undefined, "http://w3schools.com/my test.asp?name=ståle&car=saab"]
