Albert, 
 
You can include the initialization parameters for your page in the URL for that page.  Look at what hidden variables the post request triggered by your 'Initialize' button is passing to MapServer and pass them in your URL.

	Hi,
	
	 I am using intializing button as a submit button.  The html template is using the get method.  I would like to know how to get rid of the submit button. Just have the mapserver auto load into the html without clicking the intializing and get the information from the mapserver. Thanks

		If there are no other hidden or visible input tags, try to point your 
		browser to the url in the action property. If there are input tags, try 
		to append the neccessary values to the url.
		
		I don't know if that works in your case. But its a often used method to 
		circumvent the manual filling of forms.
