Mostly you'd like to handle the parameters passed to your page in the server side, but if you got your reasons why to do it client-side, here's a small script i found:

function gup( name )
{
   name = name.replace(/[\[]/,"\\\[").replace(/[\]]/,"\\\]");
   var regexS = "[\\?&]"+name+"=([^&#]*)";
   var regex = new RegExp( regexS );
   var results = regex.exec( window.location.href );
   if( results == null )
      return "";
   else
      return results[1];
}

i didn't test it, but i'm pretty sure it'll to the job.

just use it like: gup('parameter') and it'll return the parameter value for you.
