Parsing search engine queries in the referral string...

Need to capture google / yahoo / MSN strings and fill a local search box

[shri]

We're moving huge amounts of content around and people cannot find old posts / resource listings on our site. I expect this will sort itself out in a few months when the engines refresh the site.

In the mean time, I'm looking for a javascript, either free or commercial, which will parse the referral string and hand me a variable which I can plug into a local search box.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Umm.. anyone?

You'll need to parse document.referrer, with methods such as indexOf(), split(), substring() et cetera. It's not that hard to do :)
