I want to extract a query string from my URL using JavaScript, and I want to do a case insensitive comparison for the query string name. Here is what I am doing:



var results = new RegExp('[\?&]' + name + '=([^&#]*)').exec(window.location.href);
if (!results) { return 0; }
return results[1] || 0;


But the above code does a case sensitive search. I tried /<regex>/i but it did not help. Any idea how can that be achieved?

You can add 'i' modifier that means ignore case



var results = new RegExp('[\?&]' + name + '=([^&#]*)', 'i').exec(window.location.href);
