[SOLVED] jQuery and PHP query string

[solarisuser]

Hi All,

 

One of my jquery scripts asks for a default number to display.  Instead of hard-coding this in the script, I'd like to figure out how to grab a php query string and pass it to the script.

 

For example:

 

1) In the jQuery script....  "pages: 10"

2) URL will be,  index.php?pages=10

 

How can I have the jQuery script see the pages variable in the URL?

 

BTW - I've tried a few jQuery scripts that help with this but none of them worked, so I'd hopefully someone can help me out.

 

Thanks!
