Inserting Javascript Variables into DB using PHP

[Arc]

Hi, i have a javascript function that opens a new window and at the same time uses php to write a couple variables to a database. The window opens and the php writes to the database but it's not writing the value of the javascript variable i am trying to asign to it.

here's my code.

function MM_openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0
var title = document.form.txtEventTitle.value; 
var info = document.form.txtEventInfo.value; 
<?php
$conn = db_connect("dbname");
$Sql = "UPDATE tblTmpEvents SET EventTitle='title', EventInfo='info'";
$Result = mysql_query($Sql);
?>
win = window.open(theURL,'emailWin',features); 
win.focus();
}

As you can see i am setting the variables title and info to the values of 2 text boxes on my form. I then want to write these variables to the database but i cant figure out how to get the value of those variables into the php code.

How would i go about this?

Thanks!😃

Javascript variables are not availible to php you need to make a form and use post or get to allow your server side php to get variables from your client.

Well ehre's my delima. I am trying to create a preview page. I was passing the values thru the URL but it soon became apparent that wouldnt work becasue you can only pass so many characters thru a URL. SO i need to find someway of getting these values and passing them to a DB and then displaying them on a preview page.

I cant figure out how to get 1 form to go 2 different places or how to get 2 forms on the same page that cover the same elements but have 2 different submit buttons that go different places..
