I want to be able to call a page from my server with an id attached to a url, i.e. something like:
http://www.mysite.com/page.html?user

on the page that gets called I'd like to replace certain elements with whatever is typed in as the 'user' variable.

I know it CAN be done, I'm having a tough time figuring out HOW to do it. Any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks.

I don't think you can do this with just html and javascript... you have to use some sort of script that runs on the server as an application in order to call such a command. By that I mean cgi,php,purejava, and whatever else is out there now...
