The Web Page is configured.

While configuring a Web Page Component in a Workspace, you can configure the Web Page to receive Context from other Components. If the Web Page is configured to receive Context, ensure that the Component providing the Context is an ASP file. By design, the Context information provided to a Web Page is passed using querystring variables.

Note 

•   To pass specific Property values in a URL, you can create a Web tab for the corresponding Object from Talisma Business Administrator. For more information, see Talisma Business Administrator Help.

•   When a URL with "&para", "&gt", or "&lt" is defined in a Web tab, an extra special character in the URL as displayed: http://talisma207/media/visitorchat/default.asp?param3=¶m4=

This is because "&para" is a reserved word which returns the "¶" special character.
