Pass variables through a link

[me1000]

So I am using iUI to develop my iPhone application,

problem is I need to be able to pass a variable through a URL without using a link such as page.php?var=123

 

iUI reformats the URL, and the variable is not saved as a result.

 

so is there a way I can make a link setting a value to a variable, but have it saved by the browser or something, and not the url.

 

thanks,

hmm not clear enough!

ok well my page has a list of each letter

 

my links looks similar to this,

<a href="letter.php?letter=a>A</a>
<a href="letter.php?letter=b>B</a>

and so on,

 

problem with that is iUI reformats the link (using javascript) so the variable is never passed through when the page is rendered on the server.

 

is there anyway to pass a variable for php to read through the link, in a different way?

if you will use post data u can use hidden field

 

and if you will use get method u can use session

yeah, the hidden field is probably the best way to do it:

<?php
// variables to pass
$letter1 = "a";
?>
<form action="page.php" method="post">
<input type=hidden name="letter" value="<?=$letter1?>">
</form>
