Thanks. I was not able to get the code to work.

I have used the following and its working fine.

 

<script>
var a;
var QueryString = function () {
// This function is anonymous, is executed immediately and
// the return value is assigned to QueryString!
var query_string = {};
var query = window.location.search.substring(1);
var vars = query.split("&");
for (var i=0;i<vars.length;i++) {
var pair = vars[i].split("=");
// If first entry with this name
if (typeof query_string[pair[0]] === "undefined") {
query_string[pair[0]] = pair[1];
// If second entry with this name
} else if (typeof query_string[pair[0]] === "string") {
var arr = [ query_string[pair[0]], pair[1] ];
query_string[pair[0]] = arr;
// If third or later entry with this name
} else {
query_string[pair[0]].push(pair[1]);
}
}
return query_string;
} ();

</script>
<b><script>document.write(QueryString.name+' '+QueryString.topic);</script></b>

HI ,

 

You can use below function to get URL parameter in custom code

 

function findQueryParameter( name ){
      name = name.replace(/[\[]/,"\\\[").replace(/[\]]/,"\\\]");
        var regexS = "[\\?&]"+name+"=([^&#]*)";
        var regex = new RegExp( regexS );
        var results = regex.exec( decodeURIComponent(window.location.href) );
        if( results == null )
         return "";
       else
        return results[1];
    }

 

plz let me know whether it helps you or not.
