In my programming archive I have this function:

function querystring(key) {

   var re=new RegExp('(?:\?|&)'+key+'=(.*?)(?=&|$)','gi');

   var r=[], m;

   while ((m=re.exec(document.location.search)) != null) r.push(m[1]);

   return r;

}

You can use that to get the query string value and put in a textbox:

$('#SomeTextbox').val(querystring('q'));
