passing var

[_Arno_]

ive tried alot of things , but how do i pass a var to next page with <a> attribute

[Mr J]

Something like this maybe

In the next page (page2.htm)


<script>
if (location.search.length > 0)
dataPassed = unescape(location.search.substring(1));
alert(dataPassed)
</script>


In the sending page

<a href="page2.htm?hello world">Pass a string</a>

<a href="page2.htm?1 2 3 4 5">Pass a number</a>
