    Using PHP withing JS

    Hi. Is it possible to use PHP code within a javascript funtion? For
    example, is the following allowed...

    foo( <?php $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] ?>);

    function foo {
    ... does something with string
    }

    Thanks in advance.

      Yes, here's an example:

      test.php:
      ---------
      <html>
      <head>
      <title>PHP/JS Test</title>
      <script type="text/javascript">
      function foo($x){
      document.write( '<font color="red"><b> '
      +$x+
      '</b></font> was passed to this function.');
      return true;
      }
      </script>
      </head>
      <body>
      <script type="text/javascript">
      foo('<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ?>');
      </script>
      </body>
      </html>

          Yes, but bear in mind that you're just getting PHP to output data that's
          inserted literally inside the Javascript.

          You can't go on and call a PHP function from a client-side Javascript event.

              Hmm, this code doesn't seem to work. I corrected the mistake in the line
              foo('<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ?>'), ie escaping the single
              quotation marks, but all i got was the line "was passed to this function."
              almost as if the $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] has not been set... is this a
              problem with my server?

                  Well, there was no mistake in the code, I copied and pasted what I
                  posted and it worked fine. However, you will need to have PHP 4.1 or
                  greater to use the predefined $_SERVER array. Otherwise use
                  $HTTP_SERVER_VA RS instead.
