title: Replace the query string param using jQuery and put it in the address bar without refreshing
body: <p>I have to replace the st=6 to st=7 using jQuery or JavaScript and update the address bar. I tried using the jQuery address plug in but I can replace only the part after the #.</p>
  
  <p>Could you please suggest how do I update the query string before the #.
  The query string is mentioned below.</p>
  
  <p><code>http://test.com/search/searchresults?st=6&amp;term=chicken#/?term=chicken&amp;pi=1&amp;ps=10</code></p>
  
  <p>I don't want to refresh the page on changing the url but need to change the url in the address bar.</p>
