Remove params from URL in JavaScript
Published on 3 December 2013 at 12:26 by
Let us say the param we want to remove is session
and our URL is http://www.example.com/?session=lasgfnasolgnasgn&id=500&other=100
. We can remove it like so:
var oldUrl = "http://www.example.com/?session=lasgfnasolgnasgn&id=500&other=100";
var newUrl = oldUrl.replace(/&?session=([^&]$|[^&]*)/gi, "");
console.log(newUrl);
http://www.example.com/?id=500&other=100
Now let's say we also want to remove other from that URL, we can do that like this:
var oldUrl = "http://www.example.com/?session=lasgfnasolgnasgn&id=500&other=100";
var newUrl = oldUrl.replace(/&?((session)|(other))=([^&]$|[^&]*)/gi, "");
console.log(newUrl);
http://www.example.com/?id=500
Excellent.
