To declare it as a global function, just get rid of all the jQuery specific bits. Something like this:

function getList(url, gkey) {
    var returned = null;
    if (url.indexOf("?") != -1){
    var list = url.split("?")[1].split("&"), gets = [];
    for (var ind in list){
        var kv = list[ind].split("=");
        if (kv.length>0) {
            gets[kv[0]] = kv[1];
        }
    }

    returned = gets;

    if (typeof gkey != "undefined") {
        if (typeof gets[gkey] != "undefined") {
            returned = gets[gkey];
        }
    }

    return returned;
}

And then you should be able to call it from anywhere.
