URL.search Property

Name

URL.search Property---the query portion of a URL

Availability

Navigator 2.0, Internet Explorer 3.0

Synopsis

URL.search

Description

The search is a read/write string property of the URL object. It specifies the query portion of a URL, including the leading question mark. For example, the search of the following (fictitious) location is "?query=JavaScript&matches=666".

http://www.ora.com:1234/search.html?query=JavaScript&matches=666#result

Note that the search string (also known as a query string) is not parsed: it still contains the "?" prefix--which you can remove with String.substring(1)--and, more important, it is not split along the "&" delimiter into individual variables. See the split method of the String object for an easy way to break it up in Navigator 3.0.
