Parse query string in JavaScript [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can also use the excellent URI.js library by Rodney Rehm. Here's how:-

var qs = URI('www.mysite.com/default.aspx?dest=aboutus.aspx').query(true); // == { dest : 'aboutus.aspx' }
    alert(qs.dest); // == aboutus.aspx

---

And to parse the query string of current page:-

var $_GET = URI(document.URL).query(true); // ala PHP
    alert($_GET['dest']); // == aboutus.aspx
