Answer
You can pass GET parameters to a page using "?param=foo" for the first parameter. Additional parameters are included with "&" instead of "?".
Since you are passing GET parameters, you can put them all in the URL and read them in your target page. Alternatively, you can use POST parameters instead.
Here's a reference on GET vs PUT parameters:

If you are passing all parameters as GET, you can expand this bit:
var te = $("#text1").val();
var tea = $("#text2").val();
window.location.href = "/page.html?cal=" + te;
to something like this:
var te = $("#text1").val();
var text2 = $("#text2").val();
var text3 = $("#text3").val();
var text4 = $("#text4").val();
window.location.href = "/page.html?cal=" + te + "&text2=" + text2 + "&text3=" + text3 + "&text4=" + text4;
As for obtaining the parameters in the other page: I am assuming that you want to obtain the GET parameters in the other page via jQuery, since your target page is plain HTML. If this is the case, check this question
