This template provides JavaScript functions getQueryString() and parseQueryString(qs).
getQueryString() grabs the entire query string (everything after the "?") from the current page URL, and returns it unmodified.
parseQueryString(qs) accepts a query string as input, and parses the parameters into an Object like this: {"color": "blue", "number": "3", "units": "centimeters"}. Note that everything in the returned Object will be a String, so if you want to get data of a different type, you will have to use conversion methods such as parseInt().
