Hi there,

I know that I can call a function with parameters using the sitemap as
for ex.:

          <map:flow language="javascript">
             <map:script src="myApplication.js"/>
          </map:flow>
          <map:pipelines>
             <map:pipeline>
                <map:match pattern="index.html">
                   <map:call function="showIndexPage">
                     <map:parameter name="paramName" value="Value"/>
                   </map:call>
                </map:match>
             </map:pipeline>
          </map:pipelines>

and:

Then in myApplication.js you would define a JavaScript function called
showIndexPage() such as:

function showIndexPage() { var param = cocoon.parameters.paramName;
sendPage("private/index.html", {param: param}); }



But how would I use this to call a function whose arguments are in the
calling URL.

Ex. say I wanted to login any user where the user's name is specified in
the URLhow could I do this?  For example if I wanted to call a function
using the user's login name that I specify in the URL (say the user is
jsmith), and I used a URL as below, how would I pass on jsmith on to the
flowscript?:

Ex.: http://myserver:8080/myApp/login/jsmith
Depends a bit on your version of cocoon but the following will work in
all version (replace {1} with {map:1} for c3).

<map:flow language="javascript">
     <map:script src="myApplication.js"/>
   </map:flow>
   <map:pipelines>
     <map:pipeline>
       <map:match pattern="index.html">
         <map:call function="showIndexPage">
           <map:parameter name="paramName" value="Value"/>
         </map:call>
       </map:match>
       <map:match pattern="login/*">
         <map:call function="login">
           <map:parameter name="user" value="{1}"/>
         </map:call>
       </map:match>
     </map:pipeline>
   </map:pipelines>
