You may want to take a look at the jquery.query plugin. In particular the get function which returns an array of tokens that you can iterate over.

Something like this should get you started:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/files/jquery-1.3.2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.query.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function() {
    $.each($.query.get(), function(val, prop) {
        $('.menu').append($('<a />').attr('href', $.query.empty().set(val, prop).toString()).text(val));
        $('.menu').append($('<br />'));
    });
});

</script>
</head>
<body>
   <div class="menu">
   </div>
</body>
</html>

i would say that probably the way to go for this is the following (syntax isnt correct most likely)

I believe this is some regular string manipulation..

var cat1 = "topic1";
var cat2 = "topic2";
var subcat1 = "subtopic1"; etc
url = "http://google.com/?cat=" + cat1 + "&subcat=" + subcat1
<a href=url/>CAT 1 Link<a>

i hope this helps

Thanks Erika for replying but the thing is query string is not fixed. May be it will be one query string,two or three.I want to get the value of that query string and display it thats pretty simple but I want the url to be current url-(query string which is clicked)
