Question

I would like to iterate over the below and output a string that combines the different settings:

Loop through this:

config : {

   settings : {
     width: 880,
     height: 495,
     byline: false,
     title: false,
     portrait: false
    }
}

And output:

var output = '&height=495&width=880&title=false&byline=false&portrait=false',

How would I go about this?

I don’t know whether you explicitly want to loop, but you can simply use jQuery.param:

var output = "&" + $.param(obj.config.settings);
// I assumed `obj` contains `config`

The order may be different but for a query string that does not matter.
