If I was you, I would just pass all of the information to javascript via a plugin method that you will create(i.e. plugin.GetQueryString() ) You can create a general plugin method that will return all of the query parameters as a string, and then you can process it in javascript with a following method:

function getQueryParams(qs) {
    var params = {},
    tokens,
    re = /[?&]?([^=]+)=([^&]*)/g;

    while (tokens = re.exec(qs)) {
        params[decodeURIComponent(tokens[1])]
        = decodeURIComponent(tokens[2]);
    }

    return params;
}

window.$_GET = getQueryParams(plugin.GetQueryString());

As a result you will get a nice data structure with all of your GET parameters that you can access by name.
