Is this "button" an actual input or button element in a form? If so,
and clicking the button submits the form, you just need to have the
NAME as a hidden input in the form.

OTOH, if it's a pseudo-button -- link masquerading as a button --
you need to append the NAME as a query string on the link.

(BTW, it's good mailing list ettiquette to start a new thread for a
new topic, instead of replying to an ancient unrelated email...)

FWIW,
