Hi I´m not an expert so this is a simple workaround.
This will only work if "4c6a275ea326cb01f4000001" is a static value
// some prevoius value
var id= selection[0].id;
//get the string from tue url
var mylink=$('show_user').firstDescendant().getAttribute('href');
//replace '4c6a275ea326cb01f4000001' with id value
mylink=mylink.replace( '4c6a275ea326cb01f4000001', id );
//set the new value to the url
$('show_user').firstDescendant().setAttribute('href')=mylink;
if "4c6a275ea326cb01f4000001" is a dynamic value one may as well use a
similar process except that the url string has to be splitted into
smaller parts and then filled with the proper values .
Hope this can help you.
