Getting URL Parameters?

Is there a CGI variable or other means of getting the current url parameters?

I want to be able to link back to the current page with an additional parameter, but include the current ones as well. I'm currently using the path info variable to get the page, but for pages with url parameters, it doesn't save the user's real location.

For example, if my user is at mysite.com/forum/topic.cfm?topicid=10, #PATH_INFO# only returns mysite.com/forum/topic.cfm, omitting the topicid=10 part. Any ideas?

    yes. I believe it's called query_string or something like that. cfdump your cgi on a page with url variables, it will be obvious.

    Thanks Dan, thats exactly it. Not sure how I missed other than the fact that name is a little ambiguous.
