Open parameters with roman page numbers

Question

Trying to use #page=nn to go to a specific page in a PDF file.  My code is an html http link and the PDF file is on a server elsewhere.  #page=nn works fine with arabic page numbers, but not with roman numerals used in the PDF file preface, foreword, etc.  The PDF file shows "i", "ii", etc. in the Adobe Reader page box.  There is "(1 of 8)" shown to the right of that box.  I can use a keyboard shortcut (shift-ctrl-n) to search for ii and it correctly goes to the second page.  Uppercase (II) does not work, however.  I tried #page="ii" in an attempt to preserve the lowercase parameter but no luck.
Any ideas?  Thank you.

This forum is not meant as an access hub to ask people write you free custom scripts.
.. But -- fortunately for you, this particular question was interesting enough to spend 5 minutes on. It turned out to be as easy as I initially thought:
app.findGrepPreferences = null;
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat="\\d+[-~=]\\d+";
r = app.activeDocument.findGrep(true);
while (r.length)
    t = r.pop();
    s = t.contents.split(/\D/);
    s[1] = s[0].substr(0,s[0].length-s[1].length)+s[1];
    s[0] |= 0; s[1] |= 0;
    u = s[0];
    while (s[0]++<s[1])
        u+=', '+s[0];
    t.contents = u;
