[Resolved] Passing variables to a page without $_GET?

[vitalyb]

Lets say I have a link on my page a.php to page b.php:

<a href="b.php">B page</a>

I want to pass the content of $var to the page b from a, but I don't want the user to see the variable in the url (i.e $_GET). What are my options?

use sessions - www.php.net/sessions
put the variable in a hidden form and use $_POST - uk.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php#reserved.variables.post

Or use COOKIES

Or assign them an SID, record the data in a database / text file server-side together with that SID, and pull the data back out when they visit the next page, passing the SID only through the URL. Similar to sessions...
