Initial Code 
// This function looks for all vars sent through the address bar
function getUrlVars()
{
	var vars = [], hash;
	var hashes = window.location.href.slice(window.location.href.indexOf('?') + 1).split('&');
	for(var i = 0; i < hashes.length; i++)
	{
		hash = hashes[i].split('=');
		vars.push(hash[0]);
		vars[hash[0]] = hash[1];
	}
	return vars;
}

// This looks to see if 'sent' was a sent through the address bar and saves the value of 'sent' to a new varable called 'NewVar'
var NewVar = getUrlVars()["sent"];
Initial URL 

                                

                                                            

                                    

                                        

                                        Initial Description
                                        

                                    

                                    
(I did not write this, but I forgot where I got it.)

This code will find all the variables passed though the URL and return the one you are looking for.
