HELP: returned php value as a javascript function parameter

1 New Member

Hello Friends,

I'm working on a project which involves JavaScript and PHP and I'm really stuck.

I have a php file which returns a string (myPHPfile.php)

I would like to use this string as a parameter in one of my javascript function (myFunction(string)).

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

<body onload="load(); myFunction(myPHPfile.php);" >

But I don't know how to run myPHPfile within the code and recieve the value so that myFunction would run later.

Or perhaps I'm looking for a general answer of how to capture a value from PHP and use it in a JavaScript function as a parameter.

Thank you in advance.

Javascript runs on the client side while PHP runs on the server. To get a PHP result to your Javascript function you can use AJAX.
