Passing arguments from URL

[418928]

Hi everybody,

I understand that the standard way of passing arguments to a web page
using javascript is "<url>?<arguments separated with "&" and values
with "=">. Then, I can use window.location.search and the split
function to obtain the arguments. However, is there any way of
interpreting part of a URL as arguments for Javascript? For example,
would it be possible to use "http://www.myURL.com/idClient/1233"
instead of "http://www.myURL.com/myapplet?idClient=1233"?. I guess
this would require the cooperation of the web server.

Thanks,
Sergio

Yes, JavaScript can split the whole url however it wants. You're also
right, though, that the server would have to rewrite the urls.
