How to keep URL parameters on Javascript redirect?

Question

After clicking a dynamic link in an email, my users land on a page with a form pre-populated like this:

http://www.test.com/november_promo/default.html?Name=Test&Email=Test.com

A script runs right at the beginning to re-direct them to a mobile version of the page:

<script type="text/javascript" src="redirection_mobile.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
SA.redirection_mobile ({param:"isDefault", mobile_url: "www.test.com/november_promo/default_mobile.html", mobile_prefix : "http://", cookie_hours : "1" });
</script>

Is there any way to keep those parameters when they are redirected like that?

I know there are better ways to mobile-redirect with PHP, but my company's server is sketchy about letting my department's directory serve PHP files, so we try to do everything with Javascript.

document.location.search

can be used to append current location query strings to string in javascript

e.g.

<script>
var uri = 'foobar.html';

// while current location is 'baz.html?foo=1&a=b' for example

uri = uri + document.location.search;

// this will output 'foobar.html?foo=1&a=b'    
alert(uri);

</script>
