Get pathname along with PHP vars using JavaScript?

Question

I want to save an entire URL paths to a variable, including the php vars, eg:

mysite.com/pagename?id=2

I can use

var pathname = window.location.pathname;

but this only retrieves the URL without the variables.

Is there a function to retrieve the URL as a literal string?

it's hard. this answer explains how to get the query parameters in javascript stackoverflow.com/questions/979975/… — roo2

This should work

window.location.href

Can you try this,

//  Get current page url using JavaScript
var currentPageUrl = "";
if (typeof this.href === "undefined") {
    currentPageUrl = document.location.toString().toLowerCase();
}
else {
    currentPageUrl = this.href.toString().toLowerCase();
}

It's hard , this answer explains how to implement it from the top response:

function getQueryParams(qs) {
    qs = qs.split("+").join(" ");

    var params = {}, tokens,
        re = /[?&]?([^=]+)=([^&]*)/g;

    while (tokens = re.exec(qs)) {
        params[decodeURIComponent(tokens[1])]
            = decodeURIComponent(tokens[2]);
    }

    return params;
}

//var query = getQueryParams(document.location.search);
//alert(query.foo);
