You can also fixed the two languages as so: <script language"JavaScript"> var myvar; myvar = "<?php echo $somephpvar; ?>"; </script> -----Original Message----- From: tedd [mailto:tedd@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 10:38 AM To: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; William Stokes Subject: Re: PHP vars to JS? William: I'm not sure if I can answer your question, but I know you can mix javascript with php just like you can with html. For example, I use (below code from a working example): <script language="javascript"> alert("===" + document.form.f.what_db.value + "==="); </script> where "what_db" (above) is a variable generated in php -- really! So, I would play around with the idea and I think you'll find that variables pass through to javascript very well "as-is". I was surprised at how easy it was. As to your problem described below, I'm doing something very similar and I'm not using javascript at all. I just generate a form with the images (from mySQL) in thumbnails with checkbox beside them. The user selects what they want, clicks submit, and then I do my thing.
