Hi John Thanks for the feedback.
I am aware of this technique for a submit for one of my own pages, but the parameters I want to access are on the inital GET of the page. I have absolutely no control over how the URL is formed - does your technique work there? Regards Ron "John Platts" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Ron, The correct way to include URLs that include parameters is to use the RenderResponse.createActionURL() or the RenderResponse.createRenderURL() methods, and then include the result of the PortletURL.toString() method in the href attribute of the <a> tag or the action attribute of the <form> tag.
