Note also that HTTP is "stateless". That is, when a user links from one web page to another, no information automatically remembered from one html page to the next. That is true even if it is the same .php file.

That can be worked around via:
* $_SESSION[]
* cookies
* parameters on the url in the link
* <form> <input>s
* some combination -- Example: the link says http:/.../page2.php?user=jamie, then page2.php has code to look up further information via 'jamie' in a database table or other central repository.
