How to change URL parameter name using Jquery or plain JavaScript?

Question

I am developing an app and we required some dynamic data so i wanted to change parameter name using Jquery.

This is my URL which has only 1 parameter:
http://localhost:8888/games/result?subcat=lisconbyc&mode=16

is it possible to change parameter name "mode" to "release"

so after changing the parameter name it should become
http://localhost:8888/games/result?subcat=lisconbyc&release=16

Please help.

Why on earth would you insist on using jQuery to do this? jQuery doesn't have any features that help with this kind of operation. — Quentin, Jan 06 '21 at 11:29

This can be done with plain old JavaScript:

console.log("http://localhost:8888/games/result?subcat=lisconbyc&mode=16".replace("&mode=","&release="))

So, in case there are multiple <a> elements on your page you can carry out this change with jQuery (if you wish) in the following way:

$("a").each(function(){this.href=this.href.replace("&mode=","&release=")});

works good, but i am trying something like this but doesn't work changeurl = (thisdata.replace("&mode=","&release=")); $(this).find('.nopres').attr('href', $(e.relatedTarget).changeurl); – Waleedviews Jan 06 '21 at 11:41
