Re: javascript to php parameters

1) As a hidden form field - assign the value to the field's value before
submission:

<.input type='hidden' name='fieldname' value='fieldvalue' />

2) As a query string value:

http://domain.com/script.php?fieldname=fieldvalue


Note that both of these require a return to the server.  That's because JS
operates locally, on the client, but has to send the info back to the server
for PHP to use.

Hi all,

I am new to php and am trying to do the following:

I have a home page that has a javascript which prompts the user for some
input. That is then sent to a php script that generates a web page based on
data from a mysql db .

I have the javascript part, and I have the php part, but I don't know how
to pass the input from the user javascript to the php program.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.
