Parse Query String From Script Element's Src Attribute

gistfile1.js

/**
 * Helper object to parse the query string variables from 
 * <script> element's src attribute.
 * 
 * For example, in test.html:
 *
 *   <script src="test.js?name=value"></script>
 *
 * and in test.js, you can get query as name/value pairs:
 * 
 *   var queries = new ScriptQuery('test.js').parse();
 *   for (var name in queries) {
 *     var values = queries[name]; // property is Array instance.
 *     ...
 *   }
 * 
 * If you would like to avoid array manipulation.
 * ScriptQuery also provides flatten method, which returns 
 * only first value for each properties.
 * 
 *   var queries = new ScriptQuery('test.js').flatten();
 *   for (var name in queries) {
 *     alert(queries[name]); // property is simply string
 *   }
