Hallo all,
how can I show the output of a php script inside a specific <td> when clicked on the link?
example:

<html>  

<head>
<title></title> 
</head>  

<body>  

<a onClick="myscript()" href="test.php?a=1&b=345">click here</a>  

<table>  

<tr>  

<td>&nbsp;</td>  

<td id="test"></td> 
</tr>  

</table>  

</body>  

</html>

When the link is clicked, the output of test.php should be displayed
inside the <td> with the id="test".

Is it possible?
Thank in advance
babil

    ok, heres the script code and it works..partialy

    function writit(text) {
 if (document.getElementById) {
 x = document.getElementById('test'); 
x.innerHTML = '';
 x.innerHTML = '<?php include ("' + text + '");?>';  
    
 } 
else if (document.all) {
 x = document.all['text']; 
x.innerHTML = text; 
} else if (document.layers) { 
x = document.layers['test']; 
var text2 = "<?php include ('tst.php');?>";
 x.document.open();
 x.document.write(text2);
 x.document.close(); 
}
}

    okay the prob... if I use this string '<?php include (" ' + text + ' ");?>'; I get an error
    Error: unterminated string literal
    Source File: http://localhost/testt/t.php
    Line: 11, Column: 14
    Source Code:
    x.innerHTML = '<br />

    if I use this string '<?php include ("tst.php");?>'; everything works fine.
    It seems like there is something wrong with the way the string is sewed together.
    Anyone an idea? this thing drives me crazy.

    than you
    cheers

      You are mixing up clientside and serverside code. For these kind of thing you could use AJAX.

      There are several AJAX toolkits out there. I have used SACK succesfully in several projects.

      AJAX is quite easy and powerful once you get the hang of it.

        I havent used SACK but I can warmly recommend XAJAX. Its very easy to use. Heres a page that does similar that you want:

        <?php
require_once('ajax/xajax.inc.php');
$xajax = new xajax();
$xajax->registerFunction("writit");
$xajax->processRequests();

function
writit($file) {
	$objResponse = new xajaxResponse();
	if (!empty($file)  && file_exists($file))
		$content = file_get_contents($file);
	else
		return $objResponse;

$objResponse->addAssign("test","innerHTML",$content);
return $objResponse;
}
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Testisivu</title>
<?php $xajax->printJavascript('ajax/'); ?>
</head>
<body>  
        
<a onClick="xajax_writit('test.php'); return false;" href="#">click here</a>  
        
<table>  
        
<tr>  
        
<td>&nbsp;</td>  
        
<td id="test"></td> 
</tr>  
        
</table>  
        
</body>  
        
</html>

        Just unpack the latest xajax to folder you want and off you go(almost) 😉
