I'm using the following javascript to get URL parameters...

function getUrlParams() {
  var params = {};
  window.location.search.replace(/[?&]+([^=&]+)=([^&]*)/gi, function(str,key,value) {
    params[key] = value;
  });
  return params;
}
var params = getUrlParams();
var urlvars = (params.email);

The URL has [email protected]&[email protected]

In most cases one of those values is blank, otherwise they're the same. So I'm trying to make urlvars = (params.email) or (params.fbemail)

What's the best way to go about this?

• 4 Why not literally urlvars = params.email || params.fbemail? – kojiro Commented May 19, 2012 at 19:19

I'll go ahead and make my ment an answer. Why not literally write what you said?

urlvars = params.email || params.fbemail;

var urlvars = (params.email == "" ? params.fbemail : params.email);
