If you mean (as you seem to from the sample code) that you want to open a new page in the same window and then write the value to a textbox on that page afterward, you can't do that.

Alternatives:

Pass it as a query string parameter to the new page.
Save it as a cookie and have the subsequent page read the cookie.
Save it in local storage (which is a lot like the cookie option).

I can think of a couple of other options, but what all of these have in common is that they require that the receiving page do something. There's no way to drive this from the sending page alone.
