There are a number of ways to pass data between pages. If you¹re using POST
exclusively, your 2 main options are 1) Sessions (recommended); or 2) Hidden
fields. Sessions are your best option, as you can pass any data you like
between pages, whereas hidden form fields are really only effective between
a page containing a form and its Œaction¹ target. I¹ll explain more if that
isn¹t clear.
