PHP communication with JavaScript

[Anon]

Hi, I need to build an application which has a JavaScript API. The functions of the API call to PHP pages which make MySQL inserts, and give back a return value (true if everything went ok, false otherwise).

However, I haven been able to communicate with the opener page, though I would bet it can be done... I generally use tricks like
<script>

var value = <?=$value?>

</script>

and runs nice, but I am stuck with this problem...
Any help or comment would be greatly appreciated.

you're not clear what you are trying to do exactly. The example you gave should work, although I would avoid the shortcuts so that you can read your code better:

var value = <? echo $value?>

Other than that, what are you trying to do?
