title: How to Pass Parameters to a client executable in a link
body: <p>If I have a link in my page of the form:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;A HREF="/executable.exe?param=1"&gt;Run&lt;/A&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Are the parameters after the "?" passed to the executable after the browser has downloaded the executable, and the user has chosen to run the executable?</p>
  
  <p>I have examined argv, and the environment, but doesn't seem to be there.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any other place where the browser might be passing the parameters to the executable?</p>
