[ic] interpolate / reparse inside area tag???

I have an odd question regarding interpolating inside an "area" tag.

I'm trying to filter a variable like so (note we have created our own "url"
tag for the filter): [filter op=url interpolate=1][sql-param
category][/filter]. Then I need to parse it inside an "area" href.

I know from reading the documentation that the "area" tag is a standalone
tag and does not interpolate.

So this is a major problem. Not being a Perl Wizard, like a lot of you
cleaver chappies, I cant find anyway of getting the filtered variable into
my URL. I've tried using a scratch variable but is it has the exact same
effect, obviously!!!
