I'm not trying to see, or create monsters, I'm just trying to understand.
To me, what's needed to combine these two languages successfully is
simply communication, such as:
1. A way to send information from js to php and have php act upon it.
URL, querystring, form input, and cookies.
Okay, I understand how js and html can communicate with php -- but,
that's not the problem. My statement above was part of a symmetrical
requirement regarding communication.
2. A way to send information from php to js and have js act upon it.
HTML, inline script blocks, dynamic script files, and cookies.
But, show me an example of php doing each of the above where js will
receive the data and will act upon it.
For example, if php creates a cookie, then how does js know that? How
can the presence of a cookie cause js to run?
Can js cycle reading cookies waiting for something to do while php
crons writing them as needed -- and vise-versa? Is that a viable
method of communication and activation between the two?
Is there anything that php can do that will initiate a js routine? As
far as I know (limited as I am) php can't even detect if js is
present, or not, let alone cause a javascript routine to run -- is
that not correct? If not, please give me an example of where php can
make js run.
Thanks.
