You need to use ParamEncoder to get the name (and eventually the value) of displayTag's parameters, specified in TableTagParameters.html, in your case PARAMETER_PAGE.

<div>
    With Scriptlets 
    <br/>
    <% String pageNumParameter = 
              new org.displaytag.util.ParamEncoder("id_of_your_displaytag_table").encodeParameterName(org.displaytag.tags.TableTagParameters.PARAMETER_PAGE); %>
    [parameter name] = <%= pageNumParameter %>
    <br/>
    [parameter value]= <%= request.getParameter(pageNumParameter) %> 
</div>

<div>
    With OGNL
    <br/>   
    <s:set var="pageNumParameter" 
           value="%{new org.displaytag.util.ParamEncoder('id_of_your_displaytag_table').encodeParameterName(@org.displaytag.tags.TableTagParameters@PARAMETER_PAGE)}" />        
    [parameter name] = <s:property value="%{#pageNumParameter}"/>
    <br/>
    [parameter value]= <s:property value="#parameters[#pageNumParameter]"/>
</div>

Then you should be able to craft a request by passing the dynamic generated parameter for that table, with the value you want (from a SelectBox, from an Input Text, from a script etc)
