Pass parameter to HTML page

[Vikash Agarwal]

Hi
How can I pass a parameter to an HTML page?

Description:
I want to start an HTML page from Windows--> RUN
as "vikash.html arg1"

to open vikash.html page where i can fetch the parameter arg1 and work on it.

Alternative simple approach is to make another home page where i read a parameter and pass on to this vikash.html page... but any other way out to eliminate need of this extra page??

HTML has no such notion as command line parameters.

That sound like a good alternative. You can make a request to a jsp file, passing it request parameters.
Like http://localhost:8080/myapp/vikash.jsp?arg1=hello.

but any other way out to eliminate need of this extra page??

I don't think so.
