title: HTML Append Variable to Query String
body: <p>I have <code>http://localhost/?val=1</code></p>
  
  <p>When I click on a link, is there a way this link can append a query variable to the current string, for example: </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="&amp;var2=2"&gt;Link&lt;/a&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>so when I <code>click</code> it the <strong>url</strong> would be:</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://localhost/?val=1&amp;var2=2 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but when I click the link it removes the first query string and looks like </p>
  
  <pre><code>http://localhost/&amp;var2=2
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is such a thing possible with normal HTML?</p>
