Passing variable thru redirects

but not in the url

[Doood]

Can you pass variables using a redirect without a form, without a session and without the variable being in the url?

Say you link to my site using a url like
example.com?id=123
then while on my site you click on a link but that link goes thru a GeoIP script that see you're from a blocked country and redirects you to
example.com/blocked/country.php
then this page will check to see if an id is set and base further actions on if it's set or not.

Problem is, on example.com/blocked/country.php it can't get the id variable unless it's in the url.

Is that right? Or is there another way I'm not thinking of?

what about a cookie?

Since the referring url still has the id code I want then I just did it like this and it works.

$ref = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
$string = strstr($ref,"id=");
$ref = str_replace("id=","",$string);
echo $ref;

and it returns just the id number like I want. I'm not sure if it's the best way to do it but it works.

you won't always have a referrer but yes that will work when you do

I think php sessions is what you're looking for.
