get specific parameter from a url

Hi,

I need to grab only the id from the current page. I am currently using: 
ApexPages.currentPage().geturl();

Is there a way to capture selective parameters from the currentPage url.

I would really appreciate if someone could help me out

Thanks!

Hi,

You have to get parent record id from the URL,

This is a example for, how to get parent id from url in my custom objects,

klid=ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('CF00N90000008dXrx_lkid');
recklid=ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('CF00N90000008dXrx');

Try this type of way in your parent record id.

Here it is:

ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('id')

Hi Venkat,

I already tried the get('id') method and it is returning a null value;

Basically what I am trying to do is I am populating the child record with the parent id in the lookup field by grabbing the parent record id from the url. 

I am doing it through apex and visualforce.
