Answer 1

PHP is a server side languaue

JAVASCRIPT - is a client side language

After redirecting to new page , you have the value with your self, but displaying it on click is possible with javascript only (will display the number without refreshing the page)

in PHP - its not impossible, but it does not make sense to redirect to same page with some additional parameters's to display

eg; on click continue , submit a form with no action and there form should have that input field with value which you want to display (can be in hidden type), it will get submitted to same page and you will get your value using

$_REQUEST['field_name'];

But its not recommended , use JS for this, people purposely use JS for such kind of things
