Pass additional parameter to a JSONP callback

Question

For a project of mine I need to do multiple calls to a (remote) API using JSONP for processing the API response. All calls use the same callback function. All the calls are

There's a easier way. Append the parameter to your url after '?'. And access it in the callback function as follows.

var url = "yourURL";
    url += "?"+"yourparameter";
    $.jsonp({
        url: url,
        cache: true,
        callbackParameter: "callback",
        callback: "cb",
        success: onreceive,
        error: function () {
            console.log("data error");
        }
    });

And the call back function as follows

function onreceive(response,temp,k){
  var data = k.url.split("?");
  alert(data[1]);   //gives out your parameter
 }

Note: You can append the parameter in a better way in the URL if you already have other parameters in the URL. I have shown a quick dirty solution here.
