issues with passing variable thru url

[Guest_imported]

i am passing form variables from one page to another, but can't get rid of the +'s that replace the spaces. i've tried to unescape them, but it isn't working. any suggestions?

replace'em
try this:

//str - string from location.search, meaning your data
str=str.replace(/\+/g," &quot

this is the embarrassing part. how do i implement that code? the first part of my code looks like this:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;javascript&quot;>
var locate = window.location
document.joe.burns.value = locate
var text = document.joe.burns.value
var text= unescape(text)

function delineateDOL(str)

and so on. where would i put the replace function?
