need help in passing variables

[Anon]

hey, im trying to link html pages but passing variables through... when i press the submit button in the previous page, the URL on IE is correct, showing "...?item=..and so on" but when i do document.URL it does not include this, thus making this code not work... if anyone has any ideas, i would appreciate it... thanks...

function getParams() {
var idx = document.URL.indexOf('?');
var params = new Array();
if (idx != -1) {
var pairs = document.URL.substring(idx+1, document.URL.length).split('&');
for (var i=0; i<pairs.length; i++) {
nameVal = pairs.split('=');
params[nameVal[0]] = nameVal[1];
}
}
return params;
}

Why don't you just use PHP instead of JavaScript? There's this pre-defined variable $HTTP_GET_VARS. That's an array with all vars parsed through by the form. You should use it like this:

&nbsp; &nbsp;while (list($param, $value) = each($HTTP_GET_VARS)) {
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; echo "$param: $value<br>\n";
&nbsp; &nbsp;}

Hope this helps.
