Hi Joey,

Ok, I will try to explain it a bit better. Here is our example:

url: something = 555 (UID)
Now we want based on the UID to display the corresponding record. How do we 
get the value without having to use a predetermined value global var?

How do we use ".data"? We could not find any good examples.

Thanks so much for your help.
