How can session variables be used to pass form data between multiple pages in PHP?

Session variables can be used to pass form data between multiple pages in PHP by storing the form data in session variables on one page and then accessing the session variables on subsequent pages to retrieve the data. This allows the form data to persist across multiple page loads without the need to continuously pass it through URLs or hidden form fields. 

// On the first page where the form data is submitted
session_start();
$_SESSION['form_data'] = $_POST;

// On subsequent pages where you want to access the form data
session_start();
if(isset($_SESSION['form_data'])) {
    $formData = $_SESSION['form_data'];
    // Access form data as needed
}
