Can't you just use a GET variable like
http://domain.com/rooms/house.html?rooms=variable

Dear Mittineague-- I was looking through the forum and happened upon this. I wonder if you could give me an example of what the code might look like that would display a page with the above link. It would be php, no? I'm familiar with php, but not asp. I wasn't sure if starting a new link for this was appropriate, but I did anyway

by the way, that js calendar works just fine now--thanks! I think I was having an xhtml conflict too.

I think in that thread the OP was trying to link to a site that most likely is using Apache to use the variable in the URL to go to a specific page.
How to use GET variables? I wouldn't use them for anything sensitive to attact or criticaly essential. But you could do a redirect or content load dependent on them. Maybe something like

<?php
$var = $_POST['variable'];
header(location: ./folder/$var\.php);

or

<?php
$var =  $_POST['variable'];
....
echo "<img src='./images/" . $var . "' />";

Thank you so much, and also thanks for your comment about the PM (because I did check that first).
