Hi, I am trying to make a application where one page as a list(I got this 
working, code #1), but when you click on one of the links, I want it to display 
topic areas defined in the database. Any help on this would be great.
thanks,
John

code #1(works)
<!--- reference.cfm --->
<cfparam name="URL.getTopic" default="1">
<cfquery name="GetReferences" datasource="#REQUEST.dataSource#">
SELECT *
FROM reference
ORDER BY topic
</cfquery>


<h1><strong>References</strong></h1>
          <cfoutput query="GetReferences" group="topic" groupcasesensitive="no">
                <a href="reference.cfm?topics=#GetReferences.topic#">#topic#<br 
/><br />
          </cfoutput>

code #2 (Does Not Work)
<!--- reference_action.cfm --->
<cfparam name="URL.getTopic" default="1">
<cfquery name="GetReferences" datasource="#REQUEST.dataSource#">
    SELECT * 
    FROM reference 
    WHERE topic = <cfqueryparam value="#URL.getTopic#" 
cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR">
</cfquery>


        
          <h1><strong>Topics</strong></h1>
          <cfloop query="GetReferences">
                <cfoutput>
            #reference# <br />
            <a href="reference_link#">#reference_link#</a> <br /><br />
        </cfoutput>
        <hr> 
        </cfloop>
