PHP variable access across the files

I want to get one page variable values to another page. Is it possible to do with $GLOBALS? or else how should i do? I have a variable

$url = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

I want to access $url from another file.

In my experience, the most common way is to store it is a $_SESSION, $GLOBALS won't persist between your pages.

An example of Session usage

$_SESSION['url'] = $url; or $_SESSION['url'] = 'http:// . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

As long as your session is initiated you'll have access, and for large amounts of data, you may want to serialize it before moving it to a Session.
