Grabbing parameter value from URL

[mljonzs]

I am using ASP with javascript. My ASP page contains a button that uses javascript to launch a new ASP window. I want to pass along a querystring parameter from the originating window but do not know how to get the value inside a javascript.

example - I'm in window1.asp which has url "window1.asp?var1=abc&var2=def"

this page uses javascript's onclick to open window2.asp. I want to send var2 into window2.asp like this : "window2.asp?var2=def" but I don't know how to grab var2 in my javascript???

Can someone help me please??

Thanks a bunch!!
