title: How to get the querystring parameters with Astro
body: <p>I'm using quite a new technology called Astro (<a href="https://astro.build/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://astro.build/</a>) to build a completely static, server side rendered page, shipping zero JS.</p>
  <p>I have a page with a form that is a simple text input, when the user fills this in and clicks the submit button, it sends a GET request to an astro page.  The url will look something like this ....</p>
  <p>/?search=1234</p>
  <p>What I want to be able to do is get access to that querystring parameter in order to redirect my user to another static page /1234.</p>
  <p>I am trying to access the quesrystring parameter with Astro.request, but the object, including the parameters attribute is completely empty.</p>
  <p>Is there anyway to access the querystring parameters from a .astro page/file?</p>
