David,
           Adding the parameter onto the link is definitely the best
solution. But I was wondering for my knowledge, if we could add that
parameter from the screen actions. That way I wouldnt have to go search
every ftl where this link is called.

        So is it possible to add more parameters to the requestparameters Map.

        Imagine that this is the link that is present in a ton of ftl pages -

        
http://localhost/xyz/control/additem/~category_id=0200/~add_product_id=DEMO
_PRODUCT_04/~quantity=1/

        I could definitely go in every ftl file and add a parameter and link 
would
be -

        
http://localhost/xyz/control/additem/~category_id=0200/~add_product_id=DEMO
_PRODUCT_04/~quantity=1/~product_id=DEMO_PRODUCT_04

        You will notice that the new parameter 'product_id' has the same value 
as
'add_product_id'. The question is, is this the best way or can I do
something from Screen actions to add the parameter which would save me tons
of time. All I want to do is add 'product_id' to the input parameters Map
from the actions part.


Thanks a lot for your response,

Amit Shinde

I'm not sure what you're getting at here, but my guess is you are
trying to output parameters into the input parameters Map. To get a
parameter onto a link or other URL, it needs to be added wherever
that URL is defined, like in the form def or ftl file, or whatever.
