I think..... this is what you are asking, this ain't tested!!!!!!!
Add a test to your page like so,
<?php
if ( !isset $gHide ) {
$gNavigation = "<table><tr><td>";
$gNavigation .= "My Navigation";
$gNavigation .= "</td></tr></table>";
print $gNavigation;
}
?>
Then add the following to your page,
<script language='javascript'>
function openMe(tURL) {
popWin = window.open(tURL,'popWin','featureList');
}
</script>
<a href="javascript:openMe('myPage.php?gHide=true');">Click</a>
$gNavigation will be printed so long as $gHide is unset, but it you call the
page passing the $gHide param, the navigation will be suppressed.
