request.querystring javascript popup

[nfo1212]

Hi,

I am trying to pass data to a popup window. The javascript that creates the popup is this:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function popUp(URL) {
day = new Date();
id = day.getTime();
eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=300,height=500,left = 362,top = 134');");
}
// End -->
</script>

and I would like to create a link like this:

<%
response.write("<A HREF='javascript:popUp('popup.asp?ID='" & intID & ")'>Edit</A>")
%>

I would like to grab the intID variable with request.queystring in popup.asp, but I must be constructing the string wrong, maybe concatenating it wrong. I know vb/vbscript and not really javascript. Could someone help?

Thanks a bunch-
Nick

here's a function that i did a while ago:

function request(obj){
var position=0;
var fullLength=0;
var value='';

url=new String(location.href);
fullLength=parseInt(url.length);
position=url.indexOf(obj);
if(position==-1 || url.charAt((position+obj.length+1))=='&'){
	return '';
}else{
	position += obj.length;

	do{
		position++;
		value+=url.charAt(position);
	}while(url.charAt((position+1))!='&' && (position+1)!=fullLength); 

	return unescape(value);
	}
}

just use like in asp!

someVariable=request('ID');
