Firstly, you are attempting to mix positional and named parameters in you
tag. This does not work.

Secondly, using arg= as above would make [data session arg] display
'BVPage=Budget' on the following page.

try:

[area href=budget_plan form=|
				BVPage=Budget
				foo=bar
				|]

and then read using [cgi BVPage] etc.

have fun!
