Hello Alex:

In Java, use the StringTokenizer class and set the delimiters to ?, &, =,
+ or whatever is separating the "chunks" in your URL. Retrieve the URL string,
pass it through the tokenizer and store the individual chunks however you'd
like.

In Javascript, it's little more difficult but I'd start with the indexOf
operator. Here's a function that checks for a valid e-mail address for a
form element but could just as easily take a string (not what you wanted
but you'll get the idea):

function isEmail(elm) {
if (elm.value.indexOf("@") + "" != "-1" &&
elm.value.indexOf(".") + "" != "-1" &&
elm.value != "")
return true;
else return false;
}

Just check your URL string using a mechanism like this and store the pieces
in between the indeces.

As far as other discussion boards go, Sun has a big one on Java through their
Developers Connection arm. I don't know the URL off hand.

You might also try http://www.delphi.com/ab-java. You'll need to become
a Delphi member but it's free and relatively harmless (they only spam me
about once a month and it is only regarding updates to the board - never
any sales stuff).

For Javascript try:
http://www.jsworld.com (haven't been there in a while but it used to be THE
place) and
http://www.delphi.com/dynamicdesign (same stuff about Delphi as above)
