Hi <br />
<br />
I am trying to pass a variable thru href<br />
<br />
flat_file := xyz (where xyz is a function that does some calculations and returns a value to flat_file)<br />
<br />
<a href = <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/">http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/</a><!-- m -->"test.abc?new_file=flat_file">Home </a><br />
<br />
<br />
Now what happens is that in the called procedure test.abc i get the value of new_file as flat_file whereas i want new_file to be equal to what the function returned.<br />
<br />
Can somebody help please !!!!!!!!<br />
<br />

Thanks a lot.<!--content-->it really all depends on what you want to do with it. I don't have much experience with javascript bu tI can move this to the client side forum if you want to go that way. but then again it all depends on what you plan on doing with the variable after you get it from the url.<!--content-->I was able to resolve the problem.<br />
