How do I carry input data over in an input variable to an imbedded site?

is it possible to carry over a post variable from one site to another if one site is embedded in the other? For example, if I have <input type="text" name="fname"> on site A and site B is embedded into A, can site B read the "fname"?

What do you mean 'if one site is embedded in the other?' - can you give me an example of that?
If you mean within an iframe then it is to all intense purposes another site and if it did allow post variables from another site then it would be highly vulnerable.

Say for example, site B has the same form values as site A and you input the "fname" from site A

Is there another way to include one page into anothe that would workr? I know with earlier versions of php you could use a php include but not anymore.

You can include the HTML from a remote URL, but BOTH servers/sites will need the backend code to accept the POST data.
