My opinion is that you're running into the classic problem of how to get javascript variables into php variables.

As I see it, you have three ways to do this (anyone think I'm wrong, please correct me):

1. You place them into your dB with js and then pull them back out in php:

2. You use ajax and plug the js variables values into like php variables. If you want to go this route, it's not complicated -- I can demonstrate. Please let me know.

3. You can try in your html using an id="Edited" for js and a name="Edited" for php -- it worked for a previous like-problem posted on this list. But I don't know if it's applicable in your case.
