PHP post variables

Question

Can you save a variable to post in php to pickup on another page? I only know how to retrieve a post variable, or is this where you should use session instead. I don't want to save my variable on the end of the url and use get.

Are you calling the other page from the PHP script? If so, how are you doing this? e.g. by calling its URL, or including it in the current script? — Travesty3

This is where you might want to use $_SESSION variables, instead of $_POST.

See: http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.session.php

Where is the data you're wanting to pickup on the next page coming from? A form? Or what?
