I need to get data from one page, then load another page and update a

I'm sure it's simple but I'm stuck...  Any suggestions?  Nick Doylend

Three ways I've heard of, none of which I've done.

!. Use cookies.

2. Pass the info with the URL.

3. Make it a framed page, with one frame 1 pixel high or wide. Pass the

Retrieve the data.
