I’ve decided to provide you with a new data stream. The jQuery Snippet of the Week. Enjoy.

// Read a page’s GET URL variables and return them as an associative array.function getUrlVars(){var vars \= [], hash;var hashes \= window.location.href.slice(window.location.href.indexOf(‘?’) + 1).split(‘\&’);for(var i \= 0; i \< hashes.length; i++){hash \= hashes[i].split(‘\=’);vars.push(hash[0]);vars[hash[0]] \= hash[1];}return vars;}

When executed, this function will return a beautiful string-indexed array of your hacking pleasures.

Thanks, Roshambo and jQuery HowTo!
