Getting Parameter Values - Need Perspective

Have several server reports (RDLs, not RDLCs) that use report parameters (text boxes, dropdowns, etc). Is it possible to view these reports in web pages using the report viewer control and use the report parameters as they were originally intended?

From what I've experienced so far, reports behave as if parameter data was not entered. I've tried to extract parameter values, but only know how to find the parameter metadata.

Do I need to hide the report parameters and substitute them with visible web controls instead? I know how to programmatically set the report parameters, just don't know the best, if not the only way to extract user input.

See Bill Vaughn's reply in MSDN Forums >> Visual Studio >> Visual Studio Report Controls >> Getting Parameter Values - Need Perspective.
