OK, I may have worked out how to do this.  I created another page that
invokes the plugin without the form (basically when the page is rendered).
I added some code to the beginning of the plugin (thanks to a FAQ tip) that
looks for a HTTP parm like so:

wid = c.getHttpParameter("wid");

When I am linking to the page and I need to pass the wid, I use a link like
so:

[http:WIDRequestDetailsHeadLess?wid=40803]

Or

<a href=WIDRequestDetailsHeadLess?wid=39701>39701</a>

And it works great.
