Hello everyone:)

I was searching on parsing a url into an array and then writting the array into the html in individual parts, not using a loop. I can across this:

http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/969

but i've been trying to not use the loop and document.write only each value, something like so:
document.write (+ args[arg][1])
document.write (+ args[arg][2])
document.write (+ args[arg][3])
etc...

Trying to adapt the script...nothing seems to work.?

thanks

well i tried to ues it Pyro and created something that constantly crashes my browser, :confused:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
window.onload = get;
function get(val) {
if (val != "undefined" && val != undefined) {
querystring = window.location.search.substr(1).split(/&/);
for (i=0; i<querystring.length; i++) {
pairs = querystring[i].split(/=/);
key = pairs[0];
if (key == val) {
query = pairs[1];
break;
}
else {
query = "undefined key";
}
}
}
else {
query = window.location.search.substr(1);
}
}
</script>
<head>

<body>
<script>get('edu')</script>

or

<body>
<script>document.write(edu)</script>

Something like this should work:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function get(val) {
if (val != "undefined" && val != undefined) {
querystring = window.location.search.substr(1).split(/&/);
for (i=0; i<querystring.length; i++) {
pairs = querystring[i].split(/=/);
key = pairs[0];
if (key == val) {
query = pairs[1];
break;
}
else {
query = "undefined key";
}
}
}
else {
query = window.location.search.substr(1);
}
document.getElementById("value").innerHTML = query;
}
</script>
<head>

<body onload="get('edu');">
<a href="testing.htm?edu=test">reload with querystring</a>
<div id="value"></div>

please excuse my dumbness, i still a little lost, this is the url:
?cat=10&dog=20&fis=14&liz=10&bir=5&sna=16&par=10&cat=5&fro=5

so i'm trying to alter the code to have:
<div id="cat"></div>
<div id="dog"></div>
<div id="fis"></div>
<div id="liz"></div>
<div id="bir"></div>


there must be an easier way to write the value of the pairs in the url to the html?

You're welcome... Glad to hear you kept working on it yourself instead of just waiting for someone to give you the solution. Well done... :)
