Display selected row on another page, on button click - php

Question

I have a table reading out a few columns of a db, with an edit button in each row. All I am trying to do is, when the edit button is clicked, that row is displayed with all of its columns in another page. Any help would be great. I know it's simple, but I can get it to work. I am able to navigate to the next page, but not sure how to carry the id of the specific row and read that out. Thanks.
