passing two values to php page in url via jquery

Question

I have this function after an ajax post.

success: function(){

    window.location = 'morefive.php?document=' + path;
    }

I wanted to know how I could pass two variables, I have been having trouble figuring this out for jquery. It would be the equivalent of morefive.php?document=path&url=link the variable link being a url (would it have to be encoded?)

I'm not sure I understand - pass two variables to what? Pass two variables into the success event handler? I guess that depends on where you're getting path and link from. — David Hoerster

Yes, but where are you getting those values? You mention you're trying to figure this out with jQuery, but I don't see where jQuery plays a part in this. Are you trying to get the values passed into the success callback? — David Hoerster

If i understand your question, you need to use encodeURIComponent() like this:

window.location = 'morefive.php?document=' + path + '&url=' + encodeURIComponent(link);

edited with encodeURIComponent because it's better, as you said, thanks.

window.location = 'movefive.php?document=' + path + '&url=' + linkvar

Nothing says you can't concatenate multiple strings/variables together. Just separate each var=value pair with a & character.

is there a limit on how long the string (url) can be ?

Depends on the web server, but about 4000 characters total is okay.
