$.urlParam().appendTo(jqueryapi.utilities)

Why no?

code: $.urlParam = function(name){

return decodeURI((RegExp(name + '=' + '(.+?) (&|$)').exec(location.search)

[,null])[1]);

}

Sure, write a plugin to do this if you want.

this function is very useful, why no add in native jquery api?

I already told you when you filed the original ticket. Utility methods that aren't needed by jQuery itself won't be added.
