Write a regexp parsing URL

Question

I am trying to write a regex which will do the following

If I have url like

example.com?mask=33&filter=23423&mode=12

It will match substring filter=23423

I need also to consider that the url can be

example.com?filter=23423

Thanks in advance.

Might do: /filter=(\d+)/

Once matched, what do you want to do with it?

You may just not consider [\?&] in your regexp and put /filter=[0-9]*/ if you sure that there will not be any params like other_filter=987 in your url. If you may have such use substr on the resulted regexp like so

url.match(/[\?&]filter=[0-9]*/)[0].substr(1)
