One means to pass data to your LiveCode Server scripts is to include the required information in the URL.  Consider a script residing at the following location:

http://www.my-domain.com/my_script.lc

We can pass data to this script by appending a question mark and then <key>=<value> pairs.  For example, if we wanted to pass the value "RunRev" in the key "company" we would do the following:

http://www.my-domain.com/my_script.lc?company=RunRev

Data passed in the URL will be accessible to your LiveCode scripts via the global array variable $_GET.  The following example demonstrates how to access the "company" information as passed int he previous script:

<?lc
  	 put "Your company name is" && $_GET["company"]
?>

Any data included in the URL must be url encoded.  This ensures that the data is properly escaped and ready for transfer.  You can do this using the  LiveCode function "urlEncode":

	get urlEncode("Lord of the Rings")

This will result in a URL looking like the following:

http://www.my-domain.com/my_script.lc?title=Lord+of+the+Rings

Additional parameters can be included in the URL by separating with ampersands.  Say, for example, you wanted to include a type and category to our URL, you would do the following:

http://www.my-domain.com/my_script.lc?title=Lord+of+the+Rings&type=book&category=fantasy
