Can one include data from javascript in form

A

Andre

I am trying to help a friend with this. He run a booking site for camping
and lodges in Namibia, and if someone lands on the site He/She can select the
camping places and state the amount of days per site etc. These info is then
carried forward in JavaScript to a page containing a FrontPage Form, and
displayed on the top of the page containing the form. Because we can not
figure out how to get that information to be included in the form, He
created a Text Area in the form and then the user can just select all the
info and paste that into the text area and on submit its all send to Him.
Question: Is there a way to have the info included automatically in the
form and cutting out the copy and paste part ?

Here is is final Page:
