 * Hi,
 * I have read many articles and post about passing variables between WP pages, 
   but just now I have got stuck 🙁
 * My problem:
    On first page I have three randomly listed posts with “read more”
   links.
 * I need to detect which link was clicked by user and pass this link as post ID
   to second page as variable, which I will use in javascipt (javascript hides/shows
   text blocks via document.getElementById(passed variable).className).
 * I know that I need to use onClick event on links on first page, but I do not 
   know how to assign “post ID” to onClick event and how to use passed parameter
   on second page.
 * Can anybody help me, please?
 * Alex
