Hi Melanie,
I think you're asking for this (which would go in your template):
$link.setAction("YourAction").setPage("GoHere.vm").addQueryData("parm",
"value")
This will call YourAction. If YourAction doesn't do a setTemplate or
redirect or something, then GoHere.vm will be shown after the action is
complete. You can get "value" in your action by using
data.getParameters().getString("parm")
That being said, however... How do you want to change the layout? Are you
just applying a skin? If so, have a look at the UIManager class. This
might be what you're looking for and not require a bunch of templates to
change the look of your application.
Good luck,
David

Subject: link parameters
Can I pass parameters from a link to an action?
How do I go about it?
Basically I want a link to change a layout, so I have set up an action which
it goes to.
>From the action I want to set the right layout and know where I've linked
from so I can set the right screen. (hence the parameter)
Thanks for any help
Melanie
