wazzup everybody

Im trying to pass php variables through a javascript function (small pop up window), and am having no success. has anyone had any success with this?
The code Im attempting to use is below

Thanks,
Patrick

<head>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function popwin() {

window.open('showlogin.html?username=<? echo $nick ?>&password=<? echo $password ?>','Login Information','resizable=yes,toolbar=0,location=0,directories=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,copyhistory=0,width=480,height=400');

}
// -->

</SCRIPT>

</head>

</body>

as a note - this script comes up as being submitted to from a form that contains input statements for the values of username and password.

Hi Paco..

(sorry for my english)
I have a same problem but i found a solution:
You can't use php script inside the javascript! Therefore you must do all thing in same language. Your variables must stay in hidden form elements, this is the gateway between the two language. (someone use cookie...i'm not recommend because the user simply disabled the cookie in the browser )

The goal is emulating the passed variables

here's my code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
var get_var = "";
for( var i = 0; i < document.myForm.elements.length; i++ ) {

get_var = get_var + document.myForm.elements.name + "=" + document.myForm.elements.value + "&";
}
url = "order.php3?" + get_var;
window.open( url );

order.php3

<?php
if( isset($HTTP_GET_VARS) ) {
reset($HTTP_GET_VARS);
while (list($key, $val) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS)) {
parse_str($key."=".$val);
}

.
. // parse_str makes all variables from the URL to 'visible' for this module.
.
?>

I hope you can use it
bye..

Hi Paco!

sorry, this is the correct:

while (list($key, $val) = each($HTTP_GET_VARS))

note:
$HTTP_POST_VARS available if the action metod is post but javascript does not send the variable in the background only in url

bye!
