I have two page each have a drop down menu. When I choose on the 1st page drop down I want that option to be shown on the second page drop down.

Example:

1st page: red,orange,blue when I pick orange it will go to the next page and I want the word orange showing on the dropdown of the 2nd page

I hope it's clear
