So trying to figure out how to do this with window.location in Javascript. I'm sending users to our site with an appended URL with a Google Analytics code that I need to pass to an iframe src on that page. I'd assume Javascript could do this (note - I cannot use PHP)...
This is what I want to do:
I'd send users to the page with all the campaign data in tact. For example a user would click on this link: .html?utm_source=Facebook&utm_campaign=Facebook+May&utm_medium=click
They would be directed to that page, that then has this iFrame on it. The code on the store side would need to pick up utm_source, utm_campaign, utm_medium and include these parts in the IFRAME SRC So this bit:
<iframe height="960px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" width="958px" src=""></iframe>
now becomes:
<iframe height="960px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" width="958px" src=";utm_campaign=Facebook+May&utm_medium=click"></iframe>
Any javascript suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Note - I cannot use PHP.
UPDATE: Got this to work!! Yay, but now I need to edit it a bit:
So say the appended url that was clciked was this:
.html?apple&orange&peach
and I need the iframe src to be this
;peach
I moved a few things around in the script, but is now only grabbing orange and not the other & attribute (peach). please advise if there is a better way to work (without have all the params and then depending on what link comes in, some of the & will be undefined:
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
var loc = window.location.toString(),
params = loc.split('&')[1],
params2 = loc.split('&')[2],
params3 = loc.split('&')[3],
params4 = loc.split('&')[4],
params5 = loc.split('&')[5],
params6 = loc.split('&')[6],
iframe = document.getElementById('myIframe');
alert(iframe.src);
iframe.src = iframe.src + '?' + params + '&' + params2 + '&' + params3 + '&' + params4+ '&' + params5;
alert(iframe.src);
});
</script>
<iframe id="myIframe" src=""></iframe>
</body>

Reset to default 21This little snippet should do, here all you have to do is grab the bit after ? as a string and append it to the iframe source.
var loc = window.location.toString(),
params = loc.split('?')[1],
iframe = document.getElementById('myIframe');
iframe.src = iframe.src + '?' + params;
Just use window.location.search.
const iframe = document.getElementById('frame');
iframe.src = iframe.src + window.location.search;
