How can I get '10' with JavaScript?

window.location.search is the way to go.

Here's an example function:

function getQSVar( varname ) { 
   var query = window.location.search.substring( 1 ); 
   var vars = query.split( "&" );
   var len = vars.length; 
   for ( var i = 0; i < len; i++ ) { 
      var pair = vars[ i ].split( "=" ); 
      if ( pair[ 0 ] == varname ) { 
         return pair[ 1 ]; 
      } 
   } 
   return null;
}

Usage:

var IDValue = getQSVar( 'ID' ); // 10
