popup function ?? / embeding popup

netmastan

Hi.. I am using this function

function getit($lid) {
    global $prefix, $dbi;
    sql_query("update ".$prefix."_audio set hits=hits+1 where lid=$lid", $dbi);
    $result = sql_query("select listen from ".$prefix."_audio where lid=$lid", $dbi);
    list($listen) = sql_fetch_row($result, $dbi);
    Header("Location: $listen");
}

this function just get $lid vairable from other function. And it increment the hits and point to $listen(ie.http://listen.com/x.ram) link.

INstead of forwarding to http://listen.com/x.ram i want to popup small window that will will have this code which will start playing the real media file.

function getit($lid) {
    .
    .
    .
    Header("Location: $listen");
}

Instead of the Header command just place the HTML you posted above after the closing PHP tag '?>'.

Oops... Forgot about the popup... There is a javascript method where you can popup the window and then write to it. I believe it's something like...

    window.open('','mediaWind','height=200,width=200');
    mediaWind.write("Place your HTML code here");

This is untested but I know it is possible.

Although i learned something but it's not working.

I want to popup small window instead of redirecting $listen.

Popup will stay until user closed it. If the user click on another link the content of the same popup window will change.( it should not open another popup window if one is already open.)

thankis

window.open("page.php","window title","height=600,width=650,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no");

if you want diff popups, dynamically name the window title- it will reload the page if you use the same window handle for 2 diff links

why not just make all the html files already with the code in it, then just use js to open them?

anyone can call page.php ?

How I will pass variable to this page ?

Where do i put the following code ?
window.open("page.php","window title","height=600,width=650,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no");

In your ogirinal function, remove the line

Header("Location: $listen");

and replace it with

echo <<< END
<script>window.open("page.php","window title","height=600,width=650,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no")
END;

like so (you can put php variables inside the echo if you want):

function getit($lid) {

global $prefix, $dbi;

sql_query("update ".$prefix."_audio set hits=hits+1 where lid=$lid", $dbi);

$result = sql_query("select listen from ".$prefix."_audio where lid=$lid", $dbi);

list($listen) = sql_fetch_row($result, $dbi);

echo <<< END
<script>window.open("page.php","window title","height=600,width=650,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no")
END;

}
