The opposite of jQuery.param()

Question

If you serialize a object with $.param() how do i get it back?

in php there is parse_str but i didn't find anything like it in javascript.

TL&DR: Turns out that parse_str has been ported to javascript:
http://phpjs.org/functions/parse_str/

The other question is related to a serialized form, i'm talking about objects here... — Florian F, Jun 09 '11 at 17:53
not sure why this is still closed, its not a duplicate (at least not to the linked question). Anyway, this is what i was looking for: http://phpjs.org/functions/parse_str/ — Florian F, Dec 10 '13 at 17:02

Check this : Javascript / Jquery: $.param( ) inverse function.

You can also go for Deserializer of Jquery.

jquery.deserialize is a very simple jQuery plugin providing 'deserialize' functionality to a form elements.

this should be voted to close instead. – Daniel A. White Jun 09 '11 at 14:20
@Daniel : I voted it to close it. Btw, I also added another useful link :) – Saurabh Gokhale Jun 09 '11 at 14:21
i tried all functions and the desirializer, none of them could deserialize/unparam an object... If there is something nested, they all screw it up – Florian F Jun 09 '11 at 17:57
In response to Florian Fida, this worked for me on the project I'm working on: [fiddle](http://jsfiddle.net/re4vra5o/). – Cody Brumfield Oct 15 '14 at 15:22

Not sure if it's included in jquery, but look at http://www.json.org. There is file that you can use and do JSON.parse(). I think firefox has native support for it, but I don't think IE does.
