How to refresh a page with jQuery by passing a parameter to URL

Question

I am refreshing my page using jQuery:

location.reload();

This is working great but I want to refresh the same page by passing a parameter t

Answer 1

You can use Javascript URLSearchParams.

var url = new URL(window.location.href);
url.searchParams.set('single','');
window.location.href = url.href;

[UPDATE]: If IE support is a need, check this thread:

SCRIPT5009: 'URLSearchParams' is undefined in IE 11

Thanks @john-m to talk about the IE support

Answer 2

Concision counts: I prefer window.location = "?single"; or window.location += "?single";

Answer 3

Click these links to see these more flexible and robust solutions. They're answers to a similar question:

• With jQuery and the query plug-in: window.location.search = jQuery.query.set('single', true);
• Without jQuery: Use parse and stringify on window.location.search

These allow you to programmatically set the parameter, and, unlike the other hacks suggested for this question, won't break for URLs that already have a parameter, or if something else isn't quite what you thought might happen.

Answer 4

You should be able to accomplish this by using location.href

if(window.location.hostname == "www.myweb.com"){
   window.location.href = window.location.href + "?single";
}

I'm using Jquery Load to handels this, works great for me. check out my code from my project. I need to refresh with arguments to put Javascript variable into php

if (isset($_GET['language'])){
    $language = $_GET['language'];
}else{
    echo '<script>';    
    echo '  var userLang = navigator.language || navigator.userLanguage;';
    echo '  if(userLang.search("zh") != -1) {';
    echo '      var language = "chn";';
    echo '  }else{';
    echo '      var language = "eng";';
    echo '  }';
    echo '$("html").load("index.php","language=" + language);';
    echo '</script>';
    die;
}

Answer 6

if window.location.hash is empty, you cant assign to location.href a new value without using a correct function (at least tested in chrome).

try the window.location.replace:

if (!window.location.hash) 
    {
        window.location.replace(window.location.href + "?single")
    }
