Use the JavaScript object "Location" Example: URL: http://www.www.com/index.htm?foo=bar location.search; returns ?foo=bar
Then use the JavaScript object "String" to search the string and exact the value. Use the method: indexOf( ) to search the string for the character "=" Then use the method: substr( ) to get the "bar" out of the string.
