So, you want to take a single input (the textbox on the form) and siaply it in two separate and distinct places? Why not do what any other app would do an either (a) store the value in a session variable or (b) store it in an sql table?

Hard to advise further without any idea what the data is, or what it's intended use is.

If I'm not mistaken, the other option of course, is to store it in the user's machine using the functionality provided by HTML5's LocalStorage object.

It really depends on a bunch of stuff as to which is the better approach.

Okay, sure. That sorts out the first form. Now then, what about the second one?

my second form is to display the details according to the input given in the textbox

on second form load event you have to extract data from query string and then populate data accordingly
