You can use cookies or data storage API for saving data between pages.

index.html:

<?php
// set the cookies:
setcookie("riparation", "myDataFromApp");

// Render the page:
echo "<h1>This works!</h1>"
?>

Another page (jQuery cookie plugin required):

var riparation = $.cookie("riparation"); // riparation = "myDataFromApp"
