title: Passing data from one web page to another
body: <p>I need to pass a potentially large amount of data from one page to another using client side techniques. It is basically a list of id's which will get displayed on the target page. Obviously query string is not suitable as there could be thousands of ids so I thought I could use javascript to dynamically add a form (method=GET), write the ids into a hidden field and submit the form to the target page. It seems to work ok but I want to know if there is a better way of doing it - this feels a bit hacky.</p>
