anchor text as default parameter

Most references to cgi scripts are like:
<a href="...script?paremeter=value">atext</a>
where value and atext are the same, or at least value is easily
deduced from atext, so it would save a lot of work and many stupid 
errors if the atext was a default parameter to the cgi script.
This default parameter could for instance have the name a so if
the html author did not specify a=something then a=atext would be
added. If this is to radical then some way of specifying 
that the atext should be supplied to the script as a parameter 
is needed.
