PHP Pass Variable to new Window.Open Javascript - javascript

I have read the following posts, but they are a little over the top for me. I think I'm trying to do something fairly simple, and would like some guidance.
How to pass variables and data from PHP to JavaScript?
passing PHP variables across javascript windows.open to another PHP page
Posting a php variable to a new window
Here is the case:
I have a php script which is very simple, it calls another script and passes 2 variables:
<?php
echo '<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
window.open("http://callpage.com/utils/cdr.php?callernum=123456789&calltime=2017-02-22 16:24:12");
</script>';
?>
Note: This is just a "hardcoded" example.
The next script, takes those numbers and builds file/url variable.
Lets say
$file = /var/www/html/file.wav
What I'm trying to do open a new window to the effect of :
http://newpage.com/$file
I have read and found that I think the best use is Javascript, but I can't seem to get my variable into the Javascript.
Here is what I would like to get working:
<?php
$file = /var/www/html/file.wav
echo '<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
window.open("http://newpage.com/$file");
</script>';
?>
A few notes:
I don't want to "redirect" the old page, I want it to stay open, and the remote page isn't on the same domain
(one is a.domain.com and the other is b.domain.com).
I don't care about window sizes, etc, its a wav file that I'm expecting the browser to just play with a simple Browser default interface for Wav.

if I understood correctly what you want, you have to concatenate the string with the variable in order to be replaceed
<?php
$file = '/var/www/html/file.wav';
echo '<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
window.open("http://newpage.com/'.$file.'");
</script>';
?>

Use string interpolation with double quotes for the echo statement and single quotes everywhere inside the javascript:
echo "<script type='text/javascript' language='javascript'>
window.open('http://newpage.com/$file');
</script>";
The interpolated PHP variable $file should be correctly interpreted as a string and the value it holds should be displayed in the URI of your javascript.
Check out this easy to understand info about variable interpolation http://phppot.com/php/variable-interpolation-in-php/

Here is my "final" code snippet:
$query->execute();
while ($row = $query->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC))
{
$uid = $row['uniqueid'];
foreach(glob($path. "*". $uid. "*") as $file) {
$link = "http://newpage.com$file";
echo "<script type='text/javascript' language='javascript'>
window.open('$link');
</script>";
}
}

how to create a dynamic redirect link with js and php?

PHP has no relation and behavior with browsers and in some times it makes some mistake. For example we can't set for header function to redirect to a page in a blank page. Because it has no relation with the browsers and for doing this, we should use JS .Now I'm mixing these two languages to reaching the goal.
<?php
$word = $_POST["tagTxt"];
$tag = "https://www.example.com/" . $word;
echo '<script>window.open("Location: <?php $search;?>");</script>';
?>
The goal is this code but it doesn't work. I want get a string from a first page then post it with post method and then past it to a static address for redirecting with blank target. Thanks.
I think you are trying to open a new url when the page is loaded.
So if you trying to do this check the code below.
This way you are mixing the parameters received from client, processing them and them sending back to the client.
Then you use the javascript with the window.onload function to execute the redirect page when the page is loaded with the received parameter.
<?php
$word = "1";
$tag = "www.yahoo.com/" . $word;
echo '<script text="text/javascript">window.onload = function(){window.open("'.$tag.'");} </script>';
?>
Not sure I fully understood your question, but have you tried something like this:
<?php header("Location: $search");
If you are "changing" the web page. Do not use window.open
Use window.location = 'http://www.google.com/';
in your example do this
<?php
$word = $_POST["tagTxt"];
$tag = "https://www.example.com/" . $word;
echo "<script>window.location = '$tag';</script>";
?>
(copy the code above, and it should work perfectly for what you're asking for)
I fount the way.
thanks all.
<?php
$word = $_POST["tagTxt"];
$tag = "https://www.example.com/" . $word;
echo "<script>window.open( '$tag' );</script>";
?>

insert php value inside javascript function

I have this command inside my javascript to create a cookie with a specific value.
...
document.cookie="superpage=John Doe;secure=true";
...
My goal: I want the content of this cookie inserted via PHP.
So I tried this: In a separate PHP file i declared
$myvalue = "superpage=John Doe;secure=true";
Then I changed the javascript cookie creation to this:
...
document.cookie= '<?php echo $myvalue; ?>';
...
Cookie is then created but with the value <?php echo $myvalue and not the string I defined via PHP. Any help is highly appreciated.
Put your JavaScript on a page with .php extension and your code will work, .i.e:
file.php
<?php
$myvalue = "superpage=John Doe;secure=true";
?>
then, on the same page, outside the php block:
<script>
document.cookie= '<?php echo $myvalue; ?>';
</script>
There seems to be confusion on how to mix php with javascript. The only way to do so would be with javascript inside a php file:
<?php
php code.....
$myvalue = "superpage=John Doe;secure=true";
echo '
<script>
javascript code....
document.cookie= '.$myvalue.'
</script>';
?>

php echo of javascript with php echo inside

I am very new to PHP and JavaScript. I am currently using echo in PHP to run some JavaScript on the page. I need to make a new javascript array and a new variable that are equal to an existing PHP array and variable, so I did this:
var messages = <?php print_r($messages)?>
var list = <?php echo $message['user_name'].': '.$message['text'].' ('.date('d/m/Y H:i:s', $message['date']).')'.'<hr />'; ?>
However, there is a problem caused by my using echo to echo script containing echo. How would I solve this. I would like to echo it because it is only about 4 lines long, so is there an alternative.
Thank you in advance.
Edit: This is the whole JavaScript. It is for a messaging system. $messages is declared from another PHP function, and the basic aim of this code is to 'refresh' the echo every few seconds so that the user can see new messages without having to refresh their page:
echo '<script type="text/javascript">;';
echo 'var messages = <?php print_r($messages)?';
echo 'var list = <?php echo $message['user_name'].': '.$message['text'].' ('.date('d/m/Y H:i:s', $message['date']).')'.'<hr />'; ?>';
echo 'setInterval(function(){console.log("hello")},3000);';
echo '</script>';
Not getting what you want,but if you want to use php array in javascript than make it javascript array
<script>
<?php $test_arr = array('apple','banana','mango');?>
var js_array = <?php echo json_encode($test_arr);?>;
</script>
output
<script>
var js_array = ["apple","banana","mango"];
</script>
Your Javascript will execute on the client, not on the server. This means that foo is not evaluated on the server side and therefore its value can't be written to a file on the server.
The best way to think about this process is as if you're generating a text file dynamically. The text you're generating only becomes executable code once the browser interprets it. Only what you place between <?php tags is evaluated on the server.
By the way, making a habit of embedding random pieces of PHP logic in HTML or Javascript can lead to seriously convoluted code. I speak from painful experience.

PHP function return value to JavaScript

I need to send result from my PHP file to the JavaScript function/file.
I found some of answers like: var x='<?php echo $pathinfo; ?>';
or this:
myHtmlFile.html:
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.8.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="newEmptyPHP.php"></script>
<script language="javascript">
function test()
{
alert(result);
}
</script>
newEmptyPHP.php:
<?php
$res="it is result";
echo "var result = ".json_encode($res).";";
?>
My question is whether there is way return value from php function and not from php file.
something like this:
<?php
function phpFunction(){
$res="it is result";
return $res;
}
?>
I need simple PHP/JavaScript code without something complex.
I want keep many function in one php file and not many php files.
<?php
function phpFunction(){
$res="it is result";
return $res;
}
?>
<script>
var result = "<?php echo phpFunction() ?>";
</script>
The above method will work. However, if you want more PHP/JS combined scripts, learn AJAX.
The best way to get your data to JavaScript from PHP is to use AJAX using jQuery you have declared.
You can use $.get()
You can call you php script which contains the function with parameters in you url request.
And when a specific parameter is specified in the url, then you can call you fonction and echo whatever you want to the javascript.
Have a good day!
You can open as many php tags as you wish inside your one php document. You can then either make this php document separate from your main document (however this would require making the main document in php and using a "php include" or "php require") or you can simply just open and close php tags as necessary. You do not even have to close the line at the end of the php, for example.
<?php if (a==a) { ?>
<div>
<script>
<?php echo 'do something here'; ?>
</script>
</div>
<?php } ?>
Using the above example can provide some unique results. Just remember that anything you do with php you can just echo out the result and slot it into the middle of your javascript.

Pass php variable via js/jquery redirect url function

In my php i'd like to redirect via javascript/jquery a url with a php variable via js function.
My js function
function Redirect(url){
document.location.href=url;
}
In my php page i try in this way but I fear there is a problem with the syntax in the $url.
if ($opz = 1){
$url = "index.php?opz=OK#PG2&id=" . $_GET['id'];
echo "<script>";
echo "$(function(){ Redirect($url); });";
echo "</script>";
}
If I try to redirect in this way everything works perfectly (no Redirect function).
echo "<script>
document.location.href='index.php?opz=OK#PG2&id=$_GET[id]'
</script>";
Can anyone suggest me what is the correct syntax to pass my php variable via the js Redirect function? Thanks.
Just change echo "$(function(){ Redirect($url); });"; to
echo "$(function(){ Redirect('$url'); });";
Notice the quotes. the url is to be passed to the Redirect function as a string. So enclose it in single quotes. like Redirect('$url');
your problem is simple:
echo "$(function(){ Redirect($url); });";
should be replaced with
echo "$(function(){ Redirect('$url'); });";
Why you are trying to redirect your webpage using javascript.
You can do it with PHP also. Use PHP header() function to redirect your page.
if ($opz = 1){
$url = "index.php?opz=OK#PG2&id=" . $_GET['id'];
header("Location:".$url);
}
Assuming the Javascript code being generated is OK try window.location
try like below
if ($opz = 1){
$param = 'opz='.urlencode("OK#PG2").'&id='.$_GET['id'];
$url = "index.php?".$param;
echo "<script>";
echo "$(function(){ Redirect($url); });";
echo "</script>";
}
and pick up opz using urldecode();
The problem is caused by the fact that your generated HTML looks like this:
Redirect(index.php?opz=.....);
As you can see, you're missing quotes.
To put a variable from PHP into JavaScript, I always use json_encode. This ensures that, no matter what I pass it, JavaScript will see the same thing. It takes care of quoting, escaping, even iterating over arrays and objects.
