After the "?" you could put a series of variables you'd be needing to access
from new_page.php. For multiple variables you can delimit them with a "+"
character. As an example...
<a href="new_page.php?key1=value1+key2=value2">
Within new_page.php you'd need to access that using the "get" form method so the
variables will normally look like this.
<?php
$key1 = $_GET["key1"];
$key2 = $_GET["key2"];
?>
The key names above are derived from the name you assign them on the left side
of the "=" sign.
