You need to maintain session and so every page should be a JSP page(to maintain session this a must have condition).
rename a.html and b.html to a.jsp and b.jsp.

take the parameter value from a.jsp in a string or whatever in servlet.
create session object and pass the variable(using setAttribute method of session object) containing the value thru servlet to the b.jsp
