Passing Variables without Posting?

[d-woo]

Hello Forum! Newbie question here.

Is there a way to pass variables from one PHP file to another
without posting ?

For example a variable "name" gets passed from
an html form called form1.html via <Form Method="post" action="file2.php">

Question: Now that file2.php has the value of "name" Is there any way for file2.php to pass that variable "name" on to a file3.php or file3.cgi (perl),
without any more input from the original form1.html?

Thank you.

there are cookies:

http://php.net/cookies

there are sessions:

http://php.net/sessions

or you can have the variable outputed in a link like so:

<a href="http://www.yourdomain.com/script.php?n=p">click</a>
