Pass data from one form to another on a separate page

I am building a price/distance calculator with Google Maps API and am trying to pass the info from the calculator to a booking form on a separate page.

My first form has 2 submit buttons - one to make the calculation, and one to submit the relevant data to the booking form. I'm stuck trying to make the 2nd button work.

Once the API calculation has been made, I get 4 values - From, To, Cost, Distance. I am trying to pass the From, To and Cost values into my booking form by clicking the second button. But I can;t seem to get it to work. I've tried POST and GET but I think I may have been doing something wrong with both. Any help is appreciated.

Code for API form:

Thanks in advance

Add hidden fields for each of the quantities you want to pass and write their value before submitting the form with

document.getElementById('hidden_field_id').value = calculated_value

you could use

<form onSubmit="return false;" action="booking_form.php" id="booking_form">

then submits:

<input type="submit" value="Get Quote" onclick="return showLocation();">
<input type="button" value="Reset" onClick="resetpage()">
<input type="submit" id="CBSubmit" value="Confirm and Book" onclick="this.form.submit();">

it's simple and efficient
