Can I parameterize page component's "action" attribute?

Hi

 

ie. how can I pass a parameter to a "page" component's "action" method? 

 

I have a simple Visualforce page 

 

<apex:page controller="JoinController" action="{!go}"/>
 
 with a simple controller
 
public class JoinController {
    
    public PageReference go() {
        PageReference regPage = new PageReference('http://wiki.developerforce.com/events/regular/registration.php');
        regPage.getParameters().putAll(ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters());
        return regPage;
    }
}
 
 
(It redirects, copying the HTML params)
 
What I'd prefer to do is parameterize go().   Can you recommend how I do that?  ie. I want to write this
 
 
<apex:page controller="JoinController" action="{!go}">
  <apex:param assignTo="{!website}" value="http://wiki.developerforce.com/events/regular/registration.php"/> 
</apex:page>
 
 But param doesn't appear to be supported for a page component.  
 
Any ideas how I can solve this?
 
Thanks,
Jon

<apex:param> can be child component of following -: 

<apex:actionFunction>
<apex:actionSupport>
<apex:commandLink>
<apex:outputLink>
<apex:outputText>
<flow:interview>

Check this link :  https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/pages/Content/pages_compref_param.htm

You can use onloadJS if you want to send some parameter onload of this page like -:

<script type="text/javascript"> window.onload = setupPage(test); </script>
<apex:actionFunction  name="setupPage" >
<apex:param assignTo="{!testvar}" value="{!testvar}" />
</apex:actionFunction>
