Passing A Variable

[SamMan]

I have a simple (I hope) question.
Is it possible to pass a variable from a .js file to an .html file? A value
is passed to the variable through a function, and I'd like to pass that
variable on to an .html page.

Thanks,
Sam

window.location.href = 'somepage.html?yourVariable=' + escape(yourVariable);

or:

document.write('<a href="somepage.html?yourVariable=' +
escape(yourVariable) + '">A link</a>');
