[Zope] (no subject)

I've previously been a Perl programmer. I did a lot of stuff where I would
have multiple links with different options.
Ex.

<a href="/path/script.pl/1234">1234</a><br>
<a href="/path/script.pl/2345">2345</a><br>

Then, in script.pl, I would pick up the extra info on the other side from
$PATH_INFO.

The problem in Zope is that there is no "end" to the address. Serving from
Apache, it knows that the .pl extension is the end of the path. If there's a
'/' and more after it, it will push it to PATH_INFO. So how do you do this
in Zope? Because it's object names instead of paths in the request, how do
you send optional, additional info through the request as above?

I know there has to be a way to easily do this, I just can't figure it out.
