PHP post to url and then generate page from url

Question

Hi im only new to php and im trying to simply post data from a link that i generated from the output of the php-mysql result. Ive been looking around for a result but most of them require using the form tag in html5. Is there a way that i could post data to the url from the hyperlink and then use this data , idealy the primary key to then display a generated page of that data ?

Sounds like you want to use get rather than post.

<a href="index.php?id=10">Link</a>

Then in your PHP script:

$primarykey = $_GET['id'];

(Be aware of SQL injection though).
