Question

For example if I have extjs ComboBox, and I have URL like http://localhost:8080?param=value1,value2,value3

How can I access this << param >> value in ExtJS, so that I can covert it into something like Ext.data.Array or ….

Answer 1

i have this (based on the code @Lloyd found above):

var the_query_string = new Object();
(function() {
 var qs = location.search.substr(1).replace(/\+/g, ' ').split('&');
 for (var i = 0; i < qs.length; i++) {
  qs[i] = qs[i].split('=');
  if (qs[i][0])
   the_query_string[qs[i][0]] = decodeURIComponent(qs[i][1]);
 }
})();

so i can access any querystring variable globally. e.g. when
location.search = '?search=hello+world&foo=bar%3Dbar'
then
the_query_string.search = 'hello world' and
the_query_string.foo = 'bar=bar'
