board and thread id?

[ǻñî§ђ™]

I hope this is the right board. Anyway I'm making a posting page code and I need to get the board and thread id from the URL and store it in a variable, but I don't know how to do it. This is what I have:

var boardid = location.href.match(/board=RegExp.$1/i);
var threadid = location.href.match(/thread=RegExp.$1/i);

I fail at regular expressions and I don't know how to get the board and thread id out of the url. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with regular expression, but I might be wrong.

var boardid = (/board=(.+?)(&|$)/i.test(location.href))?RegExp.$1:"";
var threadid = (/thread=(\d+)/i.test(location.href))?RegExp.$1:"";

Each variable will either contain the ID or it will be empty.
As long as you are on the posting page (pb_action="display") then this will work fine...

Thank you so much Sub! I really appreciate that mate. Thanks

EDIT: How would I get the post id as well? Sorry for being a pain.
EDIT 2:figure it out
