I use this method: `# split the "id=xxx" part of the view URL @query = split /=/, $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'}; $uid = $query[1];` [download] Although it looks like you might be meaning to call it as: `<a href="http://www.webpage.com/script.pl?uid=4">Link name</a>` [download] Let me know if you have any questions. ---Mike ------------------------------------------------------- Michael Reynolds <michael@spinweb.net> SpinWeb Net Designs, Inc. - http://www.spinweb.net Voice: 765.215.7063 - Fax: 603.843.1376 -------------------------------------------------------	[reply] [d/l] [select]
