javascript – How can I search window.location.search for specific text?

I have the following code and I want it to show the div only when the part after the \”?\” includes \”gclid=\”. Note the url could look like xxxxxx.com/?gclid=kljl3j4lk3j4l23

I am not quite sure how to incorporate a partial string search so it only looks for \”?gclid\”

<script type=\"text/javascript\"> 
      $(function(){
            if (window.location.search == \"?gclid\") {
        $(\'#new\').show();
  } else {
        $(\'#new\').hide();
  }
});

        </script>

I am a bit new to this so pardon my ignorance
