Javascript Pass value to another JS Class and HTML Page

Question

I have two JavaScript classes/files, and two html pages:

-month.html
-month.js
-day.html
-day.js

I am trying to figure out how to pass a value from one html/js to the other. For instance, when a user clicks on a date in the month.html, I would like to pass that value from month.js to day.js and then display it on the day.html. Is there a quick way that I can just pass a date to the day.html and then work with it in day.js?

Thanks!

at least 3: url parameters, cookies, localstorage

I would suggest using a cookie or localStorage for this purpose.

If using localStorage in month.js do:

localStorage.setItem('date', date);

and in day.js retrieve the date with:

var date = localStorage.getItem('date');

Keep in mind, that localStorage is not supported in older browsers. You can read more about alternative local storage methods here: http://diveintohtml5.info/storage.html
