I am trying to get the arguments from a referrer off a rewrite rule

here's the deal:

I have a request coming in 

http://www.blah.com/index.htm?ref=xxx

I want to pull the ref=xxx and have it follow the user throughout my site

I am using a RewriteMap to a program and want to return the QUERY_STRING
when rewriting the url 

so when a user clicks the next page

http://www.blah.com/next.htm 

I rewrite it to 

http://www.blah.com/next.htm?ref=xxx


unfortunately the RewriteMap program is not recognizing the QUERY_STRING and
returning null
(i can return a static string no problem)


this must be a trivial issue but I am banging my head

my boss wants me to do this in JSP and I am trying to defy him
as i have told him mod perl is waaaaaaaaaay better

thanks,

Chris
