how do I call a number at the end of a hyperlink?

[Trint Smith]

I have a program that creates an html results page with:
item# | photo | title | description | price...etc
just like that on down the page. When someone mouses over which ever
one they want to see in detail, I somehow need for it to, when they
click on that result, to send out the item number of that selection to
the aspx file it is calling:
http://mysite.com/detail.aspx 'and pass the item number.'
How can I do that?

And how can the aspx file then load that number into a string for me to
use?

Thanks,

SImplest thing I can think of is to use a querystring.

The URL of the link would be...
http://www.domain.com/showinfo.aspx?id=12345

Inside the code of showinfo.aspx, reference the ID by referring to
request.querystring("id")

Thanks, that's exactly what I needed to know.
