I understand that this question has been asked a lot of of times, but the solutions posted there don't seem to work for me. I have a code as follows:
<script>
var JSvar = "<?php echo $phpVar ?>";
document.write(JSvar);
</script>
<?php
$phpVar="jajha";
?>
I actually want to pass a PHP variable to a JS function, but I wanted to try if printing the variable works first. Please help me out.
instead of
<script>
var JSvar = "<?php echo $phpVar ?>";
document.write(JSvar);
</script>
<?php
$phpVar="jajha";
?>
try
<?php
$phpVar="jajha";
?>
<script>
var JSvar = "<?php echo $phpVar ?>";
document.write(JSvar);
</script>

I need to echo multiple line error in JS alert and I am using below code
Working code
$str = "This is a error1\\n";
$alert = $str."This is error2";
if(!empty($alert)){
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
alert('<?php echo $alert;?>');
</script>
<?php
}
but I need to work on an old written code so this has addslashes function before echo alert like below:
$str = "This is a error1\\n";
$alert = $str."This is error2";
$alert = addslashes($alert);
if(!empty($alert)){
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
alert('<?php echo $alert;?>');
</script>
<?php
}
Output : This is a error1\nThis is error2
I need this to print in two lines I have also tried with only \n but it is not working then.
I'd make javascript do the hard work.
<script type="text/javascript">
var alertArr = ["<?php echo $string1; ?>", "<?php echo $string2; ?>"];
alert(alertArr.join("\n"));
</script>

(Magnificent random url by the way)
EDIT: less messy version, maybe more legitimate
<?php $alertArr = [$string1, $string2]; ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
var alertArr = <?php echo json_encode($alertArr); ?>;
alert(alertArr.join("\n"));
</script>
RE-EDIT: nah, too much work for a job so simple, two conversions is way too much
$str = "This is a error1\\n";
$alert = $str."This is error2";
$alert = addslashes($alert);
if(!empty($alert)){
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
alert('<?php echo $alert;?>');
</script>
<?php
}
I have used this code and it working fine according to your need
if still issue continues then clear your cache
I have this line of code
<script type="text/javascript">
document.title = "<?php include('pot1.php');?>"
</script>
My pot1.php gives me an echo with one random number, but that code does not seem to work and I don't know why the echo doesn't appear in my title. Is anything wrong with the code?
pot1.php code:
<?php
#include_once('link1.php');
$cg = fetchinfo("value","info","name","current_game");
$cb = fetchinfo("cost","games","id",$cg);
$cb=round($cb,2);
echo '$'.$cb;
?>
This echo is working and is giving me values because I can see them in one div.
You should just do it like this:
<?php include('pot1.php');?>
Now we know that there is a variable set. Echo that into the title tag.
<script type="text/javascript">
document.title = "<? echo $cb ?>"
</script>
The way you're doing it now... I don't think you can include an entire PHP page and expect to behave like a simple string, even if that's all it returns.
Put the value you want inside a variable in the pot1.php file and use it on the title
<?php include('pot1.php');?>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.title = "<?php echo $yourVar;?>"
</script>
I have some javascript embedded into an html file that I am running in a browswer.
document.getElementById('home-search-text-inp').value = <?php echo htmlspecialchars($_GET['search_for']); ?>;
Why does this not fill the textbox?
Note that:
document.getElementById('home-search-text-inp').value = "hi";
puts "hi" into the textbox and:
<?php echo htmlspecialchars($_GET['search_for']); ?>
writes text just fine.
Thanks in advance
You're missing quotes around your string value:
document.getElementById('home-search-text-inp').value = <?php echo htmlspecialchars($_GET['search_for']); ?>;
^^^^ ^^^^
HERE HERE
should be:
document.getElementById('home-search-text-inp').value = "<?php echo htmlspecialchars($_GET['search_for']); ?>";
If I have created a variable in php, say $test, how can I set a variable in javascript, say var test, to be equal to it.
I have already tried var test = <?php $test ?>
I guess
var test = <?php echo json_encode($test) ?>
The naive way var test = '<?php echo ($test) ?>' will fail if $test contains quotes or newlines, let alone is not of the string type (e.g. array, object)
var test = '<?php echo $test; ?>'
try like this :
var test = '<?php echo $test ?>';
var test = '<?php echo $test; ?>';
Or using shorthand echos, like this:
var test = '<?= test;?>';
var test = <?php echo json_encode($test); ?>
You can use
<pre>
var test = '<?php echo $test?>';
</pre>
below the definition of $test.
Change
var test = <?php $test ?>
to
var test = <?php echo $test; ?>
You are missing two things:
var test = <?php $test ?>
1) Echo statement.
2) Single Quotes around PHP snipplet.
So, the corrected code should be:
var test = "<?php echo $test ?>";
Within your page where you want your PHP to output to type:
var MyJavascriptVariable = <?php echo $myPHPVariable; ?>
Advise NOT to use short tags () as this can be disabled by webhosts and may break your code.
I am just getting into the world of PHP, Javascript and HTML and would like some help from the community regarding the following code. Basically I want to pass variables plucked from a ODBC_connection by PHP into textboxes. Lines 1-3 were for me to test to get the box to update which it does but anything echoed by PHP does not run. I am completely new to this so I realize I must be missing something trivial.
I welcome any suggestions or comments about what I can do to fix this or what I can do better in general.
Thank you.

You can create dynamics JS using the below
Define Content-Type on the top of your .js.php file:
<?
header('Content-Type: application/javascript');
// Write your php code
?>
and call the js file like this ..
<script type="application/javascript" src="JS_PATH/name-of-file.js.php"></script>
and if you want to use inline php values, you can write like this
<script type="application/javascript">
document.getElementById('modeltxt').value = "<?php echo $dummy_value ?>";
</script>
No need to do this. You can simply use javascript inside php as below :-
As you mention in your question
Basically I want to pass variables plucked from a ODBC_connection by PHP into textboxes.
<?php
// Php block of code
?>
<script type="text/javscript">
document.getElementById('modeltxt').value = "TEST3";
document.getElementById('customertxt').value = "<?php echo $customer;?>";
......
....
...
</script>
<?php
// Another block of code
?>
