Do I need a script to do this?

Is there a way of passing information from one web page to another without a
script of some sort?

I'd like to create a page - lets call it "orderform.htm" which contains a
form with various fields. One of the fields may be something like
"productcode".

Now, say, I've got other pages, each for a seperate product, how can I
create some sort of link to the order form on each of these pages that fills
in the product code field on the form automatically?

I thought of something like a small form on each of the pages with a hidden
field containing the product code which is somehow posted to the next page
when you hit submit?

I'd appreciate any pointers on what approach I should take.

Thanks

Steve
