Read Form Posted Values in another form in Javascript or JQuery

I have following Page with Form Data

<form id="myform" method="post" action="page2.html">
    <input type="hidden" value="1" name="A"
    <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

When I submit the form, I try to read the form values in Page2.html...I have below code in Java Script.

In the below code, I am trying to read the Posted Value but due to some reasons it always gives null value.

<script>
function getParameterByName(name, url) {
    if (!url) url = window.location.href;
    console.log(url);
    name = name.replace(/[\[\]]/g, "\\$&");
    var regex = new RegExp("[?&]" + name + "(=([^&#]*)|&|#|$)"),
        results = regex.exec(url);
    if (!results) return null;
    if (!results[2]) return '';
    return decodeURIComponent(results[2].replace(/\+/g, " "));
}
var A = getParameterByName('A');
alert(A);
</script>

Please suggest what is wrong in above code

You cannot read post variables using JavaScript, they are handled at server side.

You have to change your form submit method to "get"

<form id="myform" method="get" action="page2.html">
    <input type="hidden" value="1" name="A" />
    <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

You forgot to add the Html input closing tag.Please correct It.

<input type="hidden" value="1" name="A"/>
