Hi Phillip. Take a look at the articles on Rick Strahl's website at
http://www.west-wind.com/Articles.asp

I think between using wwipstuff and reading his articles, you should be able to piece this together. wwipstuff allows you to get a webpages into a string. So you can do stuff like start an webpage with a paramenter passed to it.
