How do I pass variables from one web page to another?

My main page has several thumbnails linked to larger pictures (JPG files).
Each large picture opens in a new browser window with a frame and color
scheme which is the same for all pictures. Right now each thumbnail links to
a different html file containing the table and color code as well as the
picture URL. Instead of repeating the html code for each picture, I would
like to pass the JPG file name to the basic code for the pic window and then
have it retrieve the pic file from its location.

You can do that by passing a parameter with the URL. Like this:
<a href="showpicture.asp?pid=10">
You can then use ASP or PHP to read the pid variable and show the
correct picture.

You can do that by passing a parameter with the URL. =
Like this:

 <a =
href=3D"showpicture.asp?pid=3D10">

 You can then use ASP or PHP to read the pid variable =
and show the correct picture.
