Need more detail.
What non-ASP system?
What URL parameter?
Could this be static HTML pages with script in them that want to get at something like their own query parameters?
Is this close?
locstuff.htm
Copy/paste above into a file called locstuff.htm, then save it. Double-click on the file to open it in IE.
Click on the "Click me" link to reload the page with query parameters, notice the change displayed.

That's it! Thanks. I knew there had to be a way to do that, but could find *no* reference in my books.
Basically, it's a simple little page that has a single 1-character parameter in the URL that I need to reference in order to include a page in the body.
