@feijo if we put javascript in href, it wont work when javascript is disabled.
@Yılmaz thanks, i was doing something like that, wondering if there's a simple function that convert 'a=1&b=2' to {'a': 1, 'b': 2}. Not a big deal but if I know that jquery had already had that function I won't need to extract the parameter by myself. @Chris yeah, in php we just process it like usually we do in POST form.
