Admin menu success message

Question

I have created a simple admin menu that allows users to enter in some basic information that is stored in the footer.

When they click save the url appends &settings-updated=true

Is there a way, using jQuery to show a success/fail message?

Can anyone show me how or give me an example?

Thanks in advance, George

See the top answer on this Stackoverflow question. Basically you need to use:

decodeURI((RegExp(name + '=' + '(.+?)(&|$)').exec(location.search)||[,null])[1]);

Get URL parameter with jQuery
