How to get part of the URL

[Lorian]

Say the URL of the page the JavaScript is on is http://example.com/somepage.php?id=7, how would I get the 7 from the URL using JavaScript? Cheers.

If you go to my website http://www.nogray.com and download the JS library. You can access all the URL variables by including the base.js file.

after you downloading the zip file, you'll need to include this in the header
[code]
<script language="javascript" src="nogray_lib/base.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="javascript" defer src="nogray_lib/IE_loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
[/code]

and your script will access the id by
[code]
_GET['id'];
[/code]

Here is a link to all the base.js functions

Here is where you can download it.
