=================

[![build status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/WebReflection/url-search-params.svg)](http://travis-ci.org/WebReflection/url-search-params) [![CDNJS version](https://img.shields.io/cdnjs/v/url-search-params.svg)](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/url-search-params) [![donate](https://img.shields.io/badge/$-donate-ff69b4.svg?maxAge=2592000&style=flat)](https://github.com/WebReflection/donate)

This is a polyfill for the [URLSearchParams API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URLSearchParams).

It is possible to simply include [build/url-search-params.js](build/url-search-params.js) or grab it via npm.

```

npm install url-search-params

```

The function is exported directly.

```js

var URLSearchParams = require('url-search-params');

```

#### About HTMLAnchorElement.prototype.searchParams

This property is already implemented in Firefox and polyfilled here only for browsers that exposes getters and setters

through the `HTMLAnchorElement.prototype`.

In order to know if such property is supported, you **must** do the check as such:

```

if ('searchParams' in HTMLAnchorElement.prototype) {

  // polyfill for  links supported

}

```

If you do this check instead:

```js

if (HTMLAnchorElement.prototype.searchParams) {

  // throws a TypeError

}

```

this polyfill will reflect native behavior, throwing a type error due access to a property in a non instance of `HTMLAnchorElement`.
