JS-Get-Url-Vars

Simple way to get the query params using the DOM/Window.

This extension maps URL query params to the object instance when initiated.

URL: http://pkelly/FileResource/themes/projects/hack2013/?apiKey=123MyKey&format=json&q=New%20Girl

In HTML:

<script src="getUrlVars.js"></script>

Init in a 'Script' Tag (jQuery.ready if you want, but it works without it):

<script>
//GetUrlVars().isAvailable('q', 'string');
var mapUrlVars = GetUrlVars();

console.log(mapUrlVars.q);
</script>

Console output:
mapUrlVars = {
found: true,
queryParams: {
format: "json",
apiKey: "123MyKey",
q: "New%20Girl"
},
match: "New%20Girl"
};
