you need this code: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- function getArgs() { try { var q = document.URL.substring((document.URL.indexOf('?') +1),document.URL.length);
var a = q.split("&"); var args = {}; for (var i=0;i<a.length;i++) { if (a[i] && a[i].indexOf('=')){ var arg = a[i].split('='); args[arg[0]] = arg[1]; } } return args; } catch(err) { return {}; } } // get the arguments array: var myArgs = getArgs(); // now the mode variable will be set to either "canvas" or "profile" var mode = myArgs['mode']; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The variable mode determines if it's canvas or profile.
