I am trying to create a launch page with multiple reports in it and I am using Javascript to create my url that I want to pass. I currently have the following code for creating my url.

var rpt1SRC="http://wfadhoc.lawsonproducts.com/ibi_apps/WFServlet?IBIF_webapp=/ibi_apps&IBIC_server=MFADHOC&IBIMR_Domain=samasale/samasale.htm&IBIMR_action=MR_RUN_FEX&IBIMR_sub_action=MR_STD_REPORT&IBIMR_folder=#ericjtiqiv&IBIMR_dir=#picolsdashny" +
"&IBIMR_fex=" + whatFexRpt +
"&IBIF_ex=" + whatFexRpt +
"&PC2=" + PC2 +
"&PC4=" + PC4 +
"&PC6=" + PC6 +
"&PC8=" + PC8 ;

am I possibly over looking a command or have things in the wrong order?

Eric, quick way to debug:
write a fex with a drill down in it.
run the fex
crack it open (that means 'view source' on the report output)
and read the structural form of the drilldown url. That should help you clear it up.
I'm assuming you're doing this work from mre, right?, not from the inetpub/wwwroot ? And there's some reason you don't want to use FORM syntax on your launch page?

Your assumptions were correct.

I ran the drill down and found the necessary URL.

I am not using the FORM syntax because of the Javascript I am using to create my launch page. my variables and my fex are changing according to different functions that I have created.
