Unfortunately I've no idea whether my ISP, Plusnet, supports php. It might
well do, but I know even less than nothing about that! If you could post the
required code I'll have a go at it though...
I had found a javascript example for a querystring function, that looked
like it ought to do the job. It's code was:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!-- Begin
var qsParm = new Array();
function qs() {
var query = window.location.search.substring(1);
var parms = query.split('&');
for (var i=0; i<parms.length; i++) {
var pos = parms[i].indexOf('=');
if (pos > 0) {
var key = parms[i].substring(0,pos);
var val = parms[i].substring(pos+1);
qsParm[key] = val;
}
}
}
qsParm['name'] = null;
qs();
// End -->
</script>
But a) I don't know if this actually works, and b) I can only see how this
might get called from things like 'onclick' like actions, but not for
assigning in the
<param name='fileName' value="Filename1.mpg">
type of construct. Should that be possible?
