Sessions are perfect for this kind of thing:
That's variabales that are stores in the server and are kept alive while the session is alive (like in these forums) and they can be accessed from any php in the server.
So you can store the data from your pop-up to the session-vars and retrieve it from the main-page. All this occurs in the darkness so nobody has control over it (php-sessions is the most secure way to send and recieve data).
