Actually Jon, the IDs are not exactly expressed that way, but your example gave me a nice idea... To tell you the truth (and now that I have a clearer idea of what to do), the id I need to pass along is from a random quote (or FAQ) but I'll fetch it before script is being declared (even before the HTML tag) and then target the script to a moreinfo.php?var=varvalue page... (does that make any sense?)

You probably need to do it along these lines: // assume ids are in $id[1...10] for ($i = 1; $i <= 10; $i++) { echo '<a href="javascript:lauchinfopage('; echo $id[$i]; echo ')">click for more info</a><br />"; } and, in your JS function: function launchinfopage(id) { url = "infopage.php?id=" + id; // open url however you like } I imagine you have your url hardcoded in your launchinfopage() function... this makes it less portable, you may want to consider passing the complete url to a generic "open new window" function.
