Be warned that the above does not work with MS Edge or Internet Explorer at this time. I’ve changed to using the following, and then accessing parameters like parsed_qs.initialScreen.
function parse_query_string(query) {
var vars = query.split(“&”);
var query_string = {};
for (var i = 0; i < vars.length; i++) {
var pair = vars[i].split(“=”);
var key = decodeURIComponent(pair[0]);
var value = decodeURIComponent(pair[1]);
// If first entry with this name
if (typeof query_string[key] === “undefined”) {
query_string[key] = decodeURIComponent(value);
// If second entry with this name
} else if (typeof query_string[key] === “string”) {
var arr = [query_string[key], decodeURIComponent(value)];
query_string[key] = arr;
// If third or later entry with this name
} else {
query_string[key].push(decodeURIComponent(value));
}
}
return query_string;
}
var parsed_qs = parse_query_string(window.location.href.split('?')[1]);
