The js statement you're looking for is "location.search". It will display
everything in the querystring, including the question mark.
Try something like:
<script lanaguage="javascript">
function initPage()
{
if (location.search != "")
{
var arrLoc = location.search.split("=");
document.form1.selReports.options.selectedIndex = arrLoc[1];
}
}
onload=initPage;
</script>
