I am trying to use a custom s-control to take the data from an existing lead, and create a new ‘candidate’ (a custom object) - for those people that fill out a form online, but are looking for a job, not our services.  I am able to have the custom s-control open up the ‘new candidate’ window, but I can’t get any of the data to populate.  What am I doing wrong?  How do I make it so that sfdc knows to pull the data from the lead record?

I currently have:

{!URLFOR($Action.Candidate__c.New)},%{!Candidate__c.Name}={!Lead.FirstName}

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
