[RESOLVED] Dynamic XML?

[eVrn]

I hope I can explain this well enough.

I am populating an XML file from a DB. The XML file is being generated by a PHP file. I need to somehow dynamically include a variable in the XML file depending on what the user wants to see. Since the XML file doesn't actually open anywhere, I seem to be having problems passing information to it so it can load up particular information.

I have tried using:

tpws.addVariable("xmlDataPath", "gallery.php?name=$getTableName");

and then using

$name = $_GET['name'];

in the PHP file that generates the XML. I thought sure that was going to work, but no.

I am out of ideas, can anyone point me in the right direction?

I'm not 100% certain what you are describing, but it sounds like you would benefit from the use of AJAX.

This site has some examples of how you would use AJAX to dynamically update content. You may also want to Google XML AJAX to get some other ideas...

I got it. It was a stupid mistake. I was closing the PHP and trying to add the variable in the query string afterwards. DUH!!

Thanks for taking time to look.
