Subj : Passing variables

Ok, I need some help here... I have a NES java emulator and I am trying to pass
the variable of the romname in the url. I have successfully done this and can
use the document.write to display it to see if it works. And it does. My
problem is being able plug the variable into a applet. Here's the applet..

<applet code=NEScafeApplet
       archive="nescafe057.jar"
       codebase="."
       width=256
       height=240
       name=nescafe>

       <param name=ROMFILE    value="roms/zelda.zip">
       <param name=SOUND      value="true">
       <param name=LIGHTGUN   value="false">

</applet>

Where I am trying to plug the variable into is the ROMFILE value section. I am
passing just the name of the rom itself (i.e. zelda). Using something like
<a href="zelda.html?name=zelda">Legend of Zelda</a>
to pass the variable. Can this be done? I just wanted to not have to have 20
html files for the different games.

Thanks,

Chronos
