PHP post variables

Question

Can you save a variable to post in php to pickup on another page? I only know how to retrieve a post variable, or is this where you should use session instead. I don't want to save my variable on the end of the url and use get.

Answer 1

Where is the data you're wanting to pickup on the next page coming from? A form? Or what?

Answer 2

This is where you might want to use $_SESSION variables, instead of $_POST.
