Send parameters to another script without opening it

[djpaul]

Hello,
I am just a newbie to javascript, but the most stuff i do is in php or .net.
But, now i have 2 buttons on my script that are calling a javascript function as shown below (OnClick"").
Now after a person pushes 1 of the 2 buttons, i want to send some information to a php-file to update my database.
The only thing that the customer will see is a message from the alert( "Thanks");
for example.
This is what i did now:

<script type="text/javascript">
 var Counter = 0;
  function ConfirmPo( value, id ){
 
 
      if( Counter == 0){
 
          if( value == true ){
 
              document.location.href = 'http://www.adres.nl/update.php?accept=true&amp;ip=11.11.11.11&amp;id=20';
 
              alert("Thanks! The repairing will be carried out." );  
              Counter++;
 
          }else if( value == false ){
 
document.location.href = 'http://www.adres.nl/update.php?accept=false&amp;ip=11.11.11.11&amp;id=20';
 
              alert("Thanks! the repair will not be done.");
              Counter++;
 
          }
 
      }else{
 
          alert("Sorry, you already have made a choice..");
 
      }
  }
 
  </script>
 

Maybe it looks odd,but the customer can only press once on button 1 or 2.
After that it is not possible to change the option he/she made.
But that is working fine.
Is it possible to send some vars to my php script without opening a new window?

Thanks!
Paul
