    Your title says 'one page to another', and your question says 'one javascript file to another'. They're very different concepts; which do you mean? – Delan Azabani Jul 18 '11 at 12:39
  • You are including both on the one page? Please add more detail, at the moment your question is unclear. – alex Jul 18 '11 at 12:39

  • @lakashman And those JavaScript files are executed how? Are they included inside HTML pages which are loaded in a browser? – Šime Vidas Jul 18 '11 at 12:47

window.postMessage is used for cross document messages. Use those messages to share data.

Question is bit confusing, If the 2 javascript files are in 2 different pages you can use a query string to pass the values.

If both of them are in a single page the value can be simply passed using a variable. Simply define the variable int he first called script file or in the page. It can be accessed from any other javascript in the page defined below the first script.
