[RESOLVED] Storing a text field from one form and using it in another form

[shure2]

I want to take the value from a text box in one from and then use that value in another form - basically I want to use the 'compname' to add a company (top form), but use the same field to delete a company (bottom form)

I have read up on using post and get into variables but don't know if this is the right approach.

thanks for your guidance!

<div id="left">
                        <div class="leftpost">
                            <h2 class="title"> Company details </h2>
                            <div class="entry">
                                <form action="company_add.php" method="get">
                                    <p>Name:<br /><input name="compname" type="text"></p>
                                    <p>Address:<br /><input name="compaddress" type="text"></p>
                                    <p>Description:<br /><input name="compdescription" type="text"></p>
                                    <p>Website:<br /><input name="compwebsite" type="text"></p>
                                    <input name="Save" type="submit" value="Save">
                                </form>
                            </div>
                        </div>

                    <div class="leftpost">
                        <form action="company_delete.php" method="get">
                               <input name="Delete" type="submit" value="Delete">
                        </form>
                    </div>
                </div>

i found the solution using javascript, for those who want the solution its here:

<form method="get" name="form">
                <!-- <form action="company_add.php" method="get"> -->
                    <div id="centre">
                        <div class="centrepost">
                            <h2 class="title"> Contacts </h2>
                            <div class="entry">
                                <h3><p><u>Main</u><br/></p></h3>
                                <p>Name:<br /><input name="compmaincontactname" type="text"></p>

                            <p>Telephone number:<br /><input name="compmaincontacttelephone" type="text"></p>
                            <p>Email:<br /><input name="compmaincontactemail" type="text"></p>
                            <br />
                            <h1><p><u>Secondary</u><br/></p></h1>
                            <p>Name:<br /><input name="compseccontactname" type="text"></p>
                            <p>Telephone number:<br /><input name="compseccontacttelephone" type="text"></p>
                            <p>Email:<br /><input name="compseccontactemail" type="text"></p>
                        <input type="submit" name="submit1" value="submit1" onclick="javascript: form.action='company_add.php';" />
                        </div>
                    </div>

                            <div class="entry">
                                <p>Name:<br /><input name="compname" type="text"></p>
    <!--<p>Industry:<br /><input name="compindustry" type="text"></p>-->

                                <input name="Save" type="submit" value="Save" onclick="javascript: form.action='company_add.php';" />
                                <input name="Delete" type="submit" value="Delete"onclick="javascript: form.action='company_delete.php';" />
                            </div>
                        </div>
