Well that is easy. You can for example take a hidden formfield and write a certain value with php, then you read tha value of this field with java script or vice versa.

you can do it in following way....

---

<%php

$message = "Hello world!";

%>

<script language="Javascript">

alert("<?=$message?>");

</script>

---

the theory is that, php will be executed on the server and alert("<?=$message?>"); will be converted into alert("Hello world!");

You just can't do this as your web server is configured only to execute files with extensions .php (or may be .php3). If file has not got this extension, it ignores the php code inside it and just reads the file as it is and throws it back to the client, hence php is not executed in .js ot .html files. Sorry sir 🙂 Also, if you wanna configure your your web server to parse html files, you can do it by making few changes in your registry (its easy in Win2K as you can do it inside IIS5).
