Pass data from one action to another in yii2

I am trying to implement shopping cart for my Yii2 site. There are N calculation forms depending on how many products user put in a cart.

<form class="calculator" id="calc1">
    <div id="calc_left_half">
            <br>
            <input type="number" step="0.01" class="calculation_input" id="regular_input_1" name="regular_input" value="0" onkeyup="order()" onchange="order()"> Put A value
            <br>
            <input type="number" step="0.01" class="calculation_input" id="angular_input_1" name="angular_input" value="0" onkeyup="order()" onchange="order()"> Put B value
            <br>
    </div>
    <div id="calc_right_half">
        <span class="order"> SUM: <span class="color_result result" id="result_color_1">0</span> $<br>
    </div>
</form>

<form class="calculator" id="calc2">
    <div id="calc_left_half">
            <br>
            <input type="number" step="0.01" class="calculation_input" id="regular_input_1" name="regular_input" value="0" onkeyup="order()" onchange="order()"> Put A value
            <br>
            <input type="number" step="0.01" class="calculation_input" id="angular_input_1" name="angular_input" value="0" onkeyup="order()" onchange="order()"> Put B value
            <br>
    </div>
    <div id="calc_right_half">
        <span class="output"> SUM: <span class="color_result result" id="result_color_1">0</span><br>
    </div>
</form>

<a id="order" class="btn btn-success btn-send cart-button" href="index.php?r=site/create-pdf?>"><b>ORDER</b></a>

Function order() makes some calculation and assigns "output" span innerHtml to result. I My question is how to pass input values and "output" innerHtml value to action(site/create-pdf). I would like to create a pdf using mpdf extention with this values.

Side newbee question: Is it good idea to use json or xml for this purpose.

Thanks guys

  1. You can use GET request. Pass paramater to url and use this parameter in other action.
  2. Or you can use 
$this->view->params['customParam'] = 'customValue'

Yii2 global variable in other actions.
