how do I get URL contents after the question mark?

Hi!

This seems to be a newbie question. I hope this is not an off-topic
question, actually didn't know where to place it - at sripting.vbscript or
here.

I have a form using the GET method. After submitting, a new URL is
generated, e.g.:

http://www.abc.com/index.htm?type=finance&section=accrual

I have tried document.location and document.url, but these properties return
only the first part of my URL - http://www.abc.com/index.htm

What is the best way of checking the inputted data in vbscript?
The page will be running locally, not on a web server.

Thanks for any help.

I'm sorry I was wrong with document.location: putting the update function
into body onload event works ok:

<body onload="checkitout()">
<form>...</form>
<script>
function checkitout()
msgbox document.location
end function
</script>
</body>

But still want to hear about other options. I guess, there might be some
elegant solutions to do this.

Thanks,
Eugene

Is this what you need? Request.QueryString["parameterID"]
hope the code below may help you

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string Type1 = Request.QueryString["type"];
string Section1 = Request.QueryString["section"];
Response.Write(Type1);
Response.Write(Section1);
}

Output :
finance
accrual

Exactly. But is there a vbscript solution to do the same?

Thanks,
