If you don t want your data to be seen by the user  use a PHP session   Data in a post request is still accessible  and manipulable  by the user   Checkout this tutorial on PHP Sessions

Send your data with SESSION rather than post   session start      SESSION  foo      bar     On the page where you recieve the request  if you absolutely need POST data  some weird logic   you can do this somwhere at the beginning     POST  foo       SESSION  foo      The post data will be valid just the same as if it was sent with POST   Then destroy the session  or just unset the fields if you need the session for other purposes    It is important to destroy a session or unset the fields  because unlike POST  SESSION will remain valid until you explicitely destroy it or until the end of browser session  If you don t do it  you can observe some strange results  For example  you use sesson for filtering some data  The user switches the filter on and gets filtered data  After a while  he returns to the page and expects the filter to be reset  but it s not  he still sees filtered data
