I do this in Cascade, a CGI-App based application (
http://summersault.com/software/cascade/ ).

The implementation has grown a bit complex over time. I think it now

envirnment variables. It also supports passing just the run mode name,
or a complete URL. I pass the parameters I need through hidden fields in
the form.
