The above is basically from Lupin's popups, no? Or somewhere else before that, given the nature of much javascript code. Now, my opinion really doesn't matter here (not really that professional a javascript coder), but it might be useful to have one standardized function related to query strings, since a lot of scripts need them, and said scripts have their own query functions. So if those scripts are used together, you have (possibly) three or four query string functions altogether, which doesn't strike me as that efficient. Creating and getting query strings sounds useful; the rest, not as much.

As [[WP:TW]] is probably the only script as of yet using QueryString (by some freak coincident), the number of calls to QueryString as of yet is 59 times. _{→[[User:AzaToth|<span style="color:#773">Aza</span>]][[User_talk:AzaToth|<span style="color:#359">Toth</span>]]} 14:45, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

:I have added an {{tl|editprotected}} to the top of the page. So, which parts of this are we going to implement? All of it? Static? Object? Certain methods, and not others?

::I think this is the sort of thing that is more appropriate for [[WP:US]]. Maybe I'm missing the point, but I don't see why this needs to be in the site-wide js, unless it is likely to be used by a general reader or editor.

::: I agree with this. —''[[User:Ruud Koot|Ruud]]'' 20:41, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

:::: Sorry, I was away a bit. My only problem with this is that I need query string scripts, so I'll have to include my own. And if someone else needs to include them, they'll have to include their own. And all these functions for doing the same thing need to load, rather than having one standardized function. No matter, eh.

::::: No, <code>importScrtipt</code> will only load a script once, even if it is included multiple times. —''[[User:Ruud Koot|Ruud]]'' 11:17, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

:::::: Do you know of a library that has this code? [[User:Gracenotes|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#960;">Grace</fontspan><fontspan colorstyle="color:#000;">notes</fontspan>]]^{[[User talk:Gracenotes|<fontsup colorstyle="color:#960;">T</fontsup>]]} § 19:24, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

::::::: Uhh... AzaToth just wrote the code? He now only has to locate it somewhere (in his userspace or at [[WP:US]] for example) in list it at [[WP:US]]. —''[[User:Ruud Koot|Ruud]]'' 19:46, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

::::::: Yeah, it doesn't exist now. [[User:Gracenotes|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#960;">Grace</fontspan><fontspan colorstyle="color:#000;">notes</fontspan>]]^{[[User talk:Gracenotes|<fontsup colorstyle="color:#960;">T</fontsup>]]} § 22:45, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

As to show you why it's so "complicated", I'm using it for example to create things like this (though I'm usually tries to make it asyncronus, it's syncrone here for the ease of typing):
