You can redirect the user to the next page with the data in a query string, then in the second page you can parse the URL.
To redirect the user you can do this:
window.location = 'page2.html?somval=" + somval;
Then in the second page you can use a function to parse the URL query string:
var qsParm = new Array();
function qs() {
var query = window.location.search.substring(1);
var parms = query.split("&');
for (var i=0; i < parms.length; i++) {
var pos = parms[i].indexOf('=');
if (pos > 0) {
var key = parms[i].substring(0, pos);
var val = parms[i].substring(pos + 1);
qsParm[key] = val;
}
}
}
This code was borrowed from here, although there are many ways to do it.
You mentioned jQuery, but correct me if I’m wrong, I don’t think it can do this.
