Its either an application thats mapped to the .html extension
a cgi of some description or even CF/ASP/PHP
or the user could be using javascript and using the paramter to display
random output that way.
You can use javascript with an image as a datapipe in order to connect to a
remote source
Probably a standard app though

Subject: How does .htm?userid=25 work?
Hello,
Could anyone please shed some light on .html or .htm files to which
parameters are passed, such as print.html?id=5 or whatever. As I
understand, all .html pages should be static files, unable to pass/send
parameters.
What kind of application server is required to run these files? Any
particular benefit to using .html?id=5 as opposed to .cfm or .jsp?
Thank you.
Farhan
