How to pass the value of a variable in page 1 to page 2 in Javascript?

I have a jQuery function that counts the number of images (eg. 3 images) in a gallery.

var imageNumber =  $(".ox-images-gallery img").length;  //value=3

How can I pass the value of imageNumber from the current page to another page using jQuery or Javascript?

I tried with:

Page 1

localStorage.setItem('val',imageNumber)

and

Page 2

localStorage.getItem('val');

but the problem is I must go to page 1 first so that the correct value of imageNumber is displayed on page 2. Any other approaches to do this?

Thanks.
