I want to pass some parameters from one view to another drill down view.On the basis of that parameters, I want to show the drill down view. How should I use the Redirector and URLLoader modules to achieve this??

I would recommend you take a look at the example views that come bundled with sideview. At a high level, you use the Redirector module with whatever the user would click on, such as a chart. On the destination page, you use the URLLoader module, and then use $PassedName$ syntax to get the actual passed parameter.

Take a look at http://YourInstance:8000/en-US/app/sideview_utils/linking for the examples you can copy to make the whole system work.
