Care to elaborate?

Your answer can be compared to me bringing in my car to a mechanic and I ask them what's wrong. They say, "Car."

I know what I need to use, just not how to use it.

Actually its more like you taking your car to your dentist and asking what's wrong.

If you hadn't read the forum title recently its "PHP Help". So asking on a PHP Help board, about something you admittedly claim to be a Javascript issue, is probably not the wisest course of action.

Or since it needs to be javascript within PHP.

I'd guess it's still PHP help. Also, it needs to be automatic.. no click some goofy input button to do it. O.o

Yes, the Javascript is "embedded" into the PHP, quite correct. But so is HTML and CSS. And I wouldn't come here asking someone for help as to why my CSS is jacked. That argument is weak at best.

And if you don't realize where the lines between PHP/Javascript are I'd suggest some research before you start asking questions.

PHP Cannot "redirect" anything to another element on the page, its a serverside language, not clientside.

Javascript IS clientside and has far more capabilities than just being triggerd "on some goofy input button". I'd suggest a quick look on the old google and you'd probably be surprised at what you could find.

Look into the onLoad Javascript function... and you can place your PHP into that.

That takes care of the "Not clicking a button" phase.

As to refreshing another IFrame, I am sure you can call the IFrame by its name - but google search should get you some answers.
