How to get query string values in JavaScript

function getParameterByName(name) {
    name = name.replace(/[\[]/, "\\[").replace(/[\]]/, "\\]");
    var regex = new RegExp("[\\?&]" + name + "=([^&#]*)"),
        results = regex.exec(location.search);
    return results == null ? "" : decodeURIComponent(results[1].replace(/\+/g, " "));
}

The usage for the function would be:

var prodId = getParameterByName('prodId');

Or this another way

http://someurl.com?key=value&keynovalue&keyemptyvalue=&&keynovalue=nowhasvalue#somehash

• Regular key/value pair (?param=value)
• Keys w/o value (?param : no equal sign or value)
• Keys w/ empty value (?param= : equal sign, but no value to right of equal sign)
• Repeated Keys (?param=1&param=2)
• Removes Empty Keys (?&& : no key or value)

• var queryString = window.location.search || '';
  var keyValPairs = [];
  var params      = {};
  queryString     = queryString.substr(1);
  
  if (queryString.length)
  {
     keyValPairs = queryString.split('&');
     for (pairNum in keyValPairs)
     {
        var key = keyValPairs[pairNum].split('=')[0];
        if (!key.length) continue;
        if (typeof params[key] === 'undefined')
           params[key] = [];
        params[key].push(keyValPairs[pairNum].split('=')[1]);
     }
  }

How to call it:

• params['key'];  // returns an array of values (1..n)

This is the output:

• key            ["value"]
  keyemptyvalue  [""]
  keynovalue     [undefined, "nowhasvalue"]
