Re: passing a variable between URL's

You could use Javascript, but then you could run into the issue that Javascript is turned off on the client. Something like: <a href="#" onClick="scriptfunction('varValue')">Link</a> Your javascript would then "build" the URL and activate it. document.location.href="url" What you are asking is for something to occur on the client side, PHP is server side and thus can't be used.

Here is the situation. somerandomsite.org/pageA.php has a link to somerandomsite.org/pageB.php when a user clicks on the link in pageA.php, I want to set a variable and pass it to pageB.php. I have seached the docs and the only two solutions I can come up with are the use HTTP GETS or cookies. Any other solutions? Is any one solution better than the others? Also, my assumption is that PHP handles regular expressions. Any documentation on that? So far the PHP docs have yeilded few clues in the subject.
