Passing a variable through the url

[netman4ttm]

We are doing a site for a client, we are collecting payment info from customers. I have greated a variable cust_num which works well within the payment program.
The problem--
The client's url is http://www.yyy.com/dddd/ffff/survey.php?name=Bulk_Survey_for_Subs_5_24_05&ssKey ="Customer"&ssValue=####
Obviously, a fake url the last #### needs to be the customer's customer number the variable cust_num.
So how do I do this?

netman,
Somewhere in the form on the page sending the URL you should see a tag like <input name = "ssValue" type = "text"> or something like that. If you change ssValue to cust_num it should do what you're asking, assuming I understand the question correctly.

There are two ways I can see to do it:

1) Remove the quotes around "Customer". That may be screwing up your URL. A value in a querystring usually doesn't need quotes. If it does, then URL encode the quotes.

2) Use <input type="hidden" name="cust_num" value="(your customer number" /> to pass your customer number as a hidden form field.
