well if your using forms you can use

<?PHP
$varname = $_GET['varnamefromotherpage'];
?>

or you can put it into a sessions

<?PHP
session_start();
$var = $_SESSION['somevar'];
?>

with session on the first you have to add session start to the top of the page and every page you are going to use it on but then you can just call the var without having to do much

put your get variable in input make it hidden when you post...get it.
