This question already has an answer here:
I have a page [page A] that sends variable values to another page[page B]. Currently, I have been using the $_GET method to get the values from [page A] on [page B]. This is how the url in [page A] looks like
$id=2; <a href="pageB.php?id=$id">Goto Page B</a>
and on [Page B]
$id=$_GET['id'];
echo $id;
In this way I perfectly receive the value of the id from [page A] on [page B].
My questions is, would be possible to receive the value of the id from [page A] onto [page B] without adding ?id=$id to the url in [page A] ?
Please if yes, how can I do this. Thanks

You can use a $_SESSION variable, which will be available on every page once activated:
Page A:
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['id'] = 2;
?>
Page B:
<?php
session_start();
if (isset($_SESSION['id']))
echo $_SESSION['id']; // 2
?>
you want to use sessions here:
session_start();
$_SESSION['id']= $id;
$id can of course be any value.
