Query String

[davethebrat]

Lets assume I have a web page like this (generic address) someplace.com/index.htm?name=dave&In=Jane

How do I get the values for NAME and In?

I am new to JavaScript and I am used to Visual Basic but I dont want to do VBScript on my web site b/c most people have is disabled. Does anyone have a code snippet for this problem?

ALSO: Please reply if you know of any good (JS) web sites, magizines or books.
