You can also try this one.

for example on page1.php you can have a link that when clicked will pass variables to page2,php

page1.php

 Help with Code Tags 
 PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
<?php
echo "<a href='page2.php?var1=1&var2=2&var3=3>"."link </a>";
?>
<?php
echo "<a href='page2.php?var1=1&var2=2&var3=3>"."link </a>";
?>

page2.php

on this page you will retrieve the values using $_GET

 Help with Code Tags 
 PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
<?php 
 
$var1=$_GET["var1"];
$var2=$_GET["var2"];
$var3=$_GET["var3"];
 
echo "$var1";
echo "$var2";
echo "$var3";
 
?>
<?php 

$var1=$_GET["var1"];
$var2=$_GET["var2"];
$var3=$_GET["var3"];

echo "$var1";
echo "$var2";
echo "$var3";

?>

If you find this useful you can add to my reputation

you could use sessions to store variables between pages.For example:

page1

 Help with Code Tags 
 php Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
session_start();
$_SESSION['var1']="this is variable1";
session_start();
$_SESSION['var1']="this is variable1";

page2

 Help with Code Tags 
 php Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
session_start();
echo $_SESSION['var1'];
session_start();
echo $_SESSION['var1'];

output of page2 will be:



this is variable1
