get url parameter value in javascript

Hi,

Thanks for this but where do I substitute the ID in your code

R8vi

wherever you're looking to use the ID value, such like this:

   var idParam = QueryString.id;

Select allOpen in new window

I am sorry could you please explain a bit further

Ultimately what are you trying to accomplish with the url perameter?

Try:
var id = document.getElementById("URL").getAttribute("id");

doesn't work in Chrome...

Hi,

So I have a URL like so

http://localhost:49768/Solution/IframePage.aspx?Name=Ellis&URL=http://www.test.com

I would like to get the Value of "URL" which in this case would be http://www.test.com
 and store it in a variable

Thanks

R8VI

ok, so using my example above, just create a variable:

var myURL;

then assign it like:

myURL = QueryString.URL;

the function I gave earlier runs upon page load, and it basically creates an "object" with properties that are the url parameters

You could also toggle the string with JS string functions (see http://w3schools.com/js/js_obj_string.asp) and extract the URL.
