Here is an example: I need to append '?key=val1' to the current url which is www.mysite.com/web/test.html
and this I can do using: window.location.href+'?key=val1' resulting in www.mysite.com/web/test.html?key=val1 I now need a way to modify val1 to val2, if I do: window.location.href+'?key=val2' results in www.mysite.com/web/test.html?key=val1?key=val2 but I need: www.mysite.com/web/test.html?key=val2 There are ways to break down the url but wanted to know if there is anything jQuery already provides. Thanks!
