Storing data in a url with javascript and HTML

Question

Hi I have two forms. Once form for the client to fill in and another form that will be auto populated with data from the client form when opened. I need a way to store this client information temporeraly in order to autopopulate fields in the other form. Can this be done through a url? because the data will be sent via a email. There is only 3 fields that need auto populating. I was thinking of sending a hyperlink through email created by the client form that takes the 3 input fields and passestheir content to the other fields in the other form. can this be done? any advice on how to achive this? Thank you.

Ive figured out a way of doing this but I cannot get the hyperlink to appear correctly in the email once it pops up. This is my function for setting up the link. function send() { var name = document.getElementById('Fname').value; var company = document.getElementById('company').value; var email = document.getElementById('email').value; var str = Link to IT Web Report var linkToReport = str.link('S:\IT\Applications\Aleds Work\Guest WIFI access\ITTaskWebReport.html?name='+name+'&company='+company+'&email='+email); var link = 'mailto:FHCNetAlert@fhc.co.uk?subject= Guest WIFI request' +'&body=A request for guest WIFI access was made. Details:- %0D%0A' +'%0D%0A Name: '+document.getElementById('Fname').value + '%0D%0A Company: '+document.getElementById('company').value + '%0D%0A Email: '+document.getElementById('email').value + '%0D%0A'+linkToReport; window.location.href = link; }
