Jim, In a web page I have a list of names (ClearCase VOBs) that I like to link to a single script. When I click on any one of those names they should become an argument to that script. The script will then fetch certain data (Epoch numbers) for that name.
I think what you and Rasnita suggested may very well be the solution but now I have to install the package "new" as I got some error to that effect. Thanks again.
