How would it not work? You just write a handler like:
public void activateExternalPage(Object[] parameters, IRequestCycle cycle) {
String catalog = (String) parameters[0];
String category = (String) parameters[1];
String subcategory = (String) parameters[2];
String productname = (String) parameters[3];
... do some stuff?
}
Or am I missing some aspect of the problem?
