Multiple values passed in query string

Question

I am using something the below code to pass a single value via query string to my html page on button click using Javascript function.

window.location.href("somepage.html?w1=" + hello);

The above code is working fine.

But when I am trying to append second variable with this URL, nothing happens on click of the button.

window.location.href("somepage.html?w1=" + hello + "&w2=" + world);

What am I doing wrong here?

It's window.location.href = "somepage.html?w1="+ hello +"&w2="+ world; I.e. your "first code" is not working (I tested it and got "string is not a function"). — Samuli Hakoniemi

window.location.hrefis not a function. There is no way that'll work. — techfoobar

But it is working for single values. Also, I have tried using window.location.href="something/html?....." for passing multiple values. It dint work either. Nothing happens on button click — Arpita Dutta

href is a property. try assigning the value like this:

window.location.href = "somepage.html?w1=" + hello + "&w2=" + world;
