苹果开始时，当点击一个按钮，跳转到下一下页面，点击时，传递一个参数到调用方法

Hi all,

NSString *name = @"John";

I need to pass the above variable value, when clicking on the uibutton

currently i created the uibutton like below

sendButton = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(170, 350, 90, 30)];

[sendButton setTitle:@"YES!" forState:UIControlStateNormal];

[sendButton addTarget:self action:@selector(sendAlert forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];

[sendButton setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

sendButton.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

[popoverView addSubview:sendButton];

[sendButton release];

when i clicking the above button, it calls the method but i want to pass the variable (name) to the function...

Please guide me to get it ....
