Transferring Data from one web-page to another

Transferring Data from one web-page to another

Hello, I am pretty new to programming and even newer to jQuery so I apologize if this comes off as a very naive or foolish question.

I am trying to figure out how to send information (numerical) from one web page to another web page.

The desired end result is that when I load the 2nd web page, it will use the information provided by the 1st web page, within its function and give the result.

Normally, the second page would require you to select a button after inserting numerical data/information into it which would then activate the code within it.

I want to be able to remove that button and text field and have the numerical information/data move from the 1st web page to the 2nd web page and have the 2nd web page invoke/call the function within it automatically.

How exactly do I do this using jQuery? 

Yours respectfully,
Shayn Hacker

And yes, that's my real last name.
