Replace url parameter

Question

My URL is

   /home/?tx_besijobs_pi1[pointer]=2&cHash=749431ca0340bf2344cc90704f79570f

My jquery code contain

    var pntr = getUrlVars()["tx_besijobs_pi1[pointer]"];

from which I am getting pointer value as 1,2,3,...

I have to change pointer value to 0 on next Tab click. My replace code looks like

    id =id.replace("[pointer]=pntr", "[pointer]=0");

But its not working...

If I am manually giving pointer value

    id =id.replace("[pointer]=2", "[pointer]=0");

the code will work . How can use "pntr" in the code?

pntr is a variable, so it should be outside the quotation marks.

Try this:

id = id.replace("[pointer]=" + pntr, "[pointer]=0");

use regular expression like:

var url = '/home/?tx_besijobs_pi1[pointer]=2&cHash=749431ca0340bf2344cc90704f79570f';
alert( url.replace(/pointer\]=\d{1,}/gi, "pointer]=0"));
