accessing javascript variables in php

[Anon]

I was wondering does anyone know of any sites/resources that are out there that deals with the use of javascript generated variables in a php script and/or vice versa

You could pass php variables in javascript but not vice versa as Php is server side script.

To pass php variables to javascript use this code:
<?
.....
echo " <script language=javascript > \n";
echo "\n jsvalue1 = $value1; \n";
echo "\n jsvalue2 = $value2; \n";
echo "\n </script> \n";
.....
?>

<script language="JavaScript">
alert(jsvalue1);
alert(jsvalue2);
</script>

But you cannot pass to php from javascript. You can cache them to reuse in php itself.

You write that you can not pass to php from javascript because it is a server site language.

I can't see any reason why this should not be possible.

You just can't do it on the same page, but if you make a javascript print out content to a page, in such a way that you create a link to a php page, and add a variable at the end of the link, you should in principle be able to send the value of a javascript variable to that php page.

I havn't tried it yet, but I will see if I can create an example.

Jesper.
