[if type=data term="table::column::key" op=eq compare="[cgi varname]"]
...
[/if]

Or, if within a loop search of the table from which a field value is to be 
compared to the cgi variable:

[loop search="
         fi=table
         st=type
         sf=search_field
         se=search_spec
         ...(more terms if you want)
"]

[if type=cgi term=varname op=eq compare="[loop-data table field]"]
...
[/if]

...you might even try this (don't know if it will parse correctly):

[if-loop-data table field eq [cgi varname]]
...
[/if-loop-data]


[/loop]


...And I am sure there are *many* other ways this cat could be skinned.
