[RESOLVED] Is this code possible?

I've made buttons represented as tables, I know there are other routes, but this is what I HAD to use.

Anyways, I need the buttons to change text/images in another table which contains all the main text.

I was wondering whether this code is possible?

onclick="<? $currentText = $text1; ?>"

I put it inside the table code

currentText is the text in the main table

text1 is the text I'd like to replace it with

I tried it in my code, but it didn't work, just wondering if anyone knew if this code was wrong.

Any help is always appreciated, thanks a lot

This code is wrong ...

BTW, if u have problem with your javascript code, posted in ClientSide Technologies, u'll find a much faster answer ...

Hi,

You forgot to display the variable (echo).

No, it's not possible the way you've written it. You're confusing client-side and server-side code, which cannot be mixed in the way you've shown.

Either use Javascript to do it OR refresh the page (perhaps via form submit) and have PHP regenerate the page with the relevant content in.

OK, thanks, I found a work around and I'm not going to be mixing php and javascript.
