getting string value into level2

[2cxc]

from a swf i'm passing a variable/value pair to another htmllike so:
page.html?cat=2

the other.html contains 4 swfs, the swf on level 2 needs this use this variable and value, but i can't seem to make it work, i've been playing around with variations of:

_level2.cat = _level0.cat;
_level2.cat = _root.cat;
cat = _root.cat
cat = (_url="

http://...other.html?cat=2)

The cat variable in level2 just doesn't want to take on a value? Any Ideas...
