Flatten a javascript object to pass as querystring

Question

I have a javascript object that I need to flatten into a string so that I can pass as querystring, how would I do that? i.e:

{ cost: 12345, insertBy: \'testUse

Answer 1

General JavaScript:

function toParam(obj) {
  var str = "";
  var seperator = "";
  for (key in obj) {
    str += seperator;
    str += enncodeURIComponent(key) + "=" + encodeURIComponent(obj[key]);
    seperator = "&";
  }
  return str;
}


toParam({ cost: 12345, insertBy: 'testUser' })
"cost=12345&insertBy=testUser"
