php + javascript

[yaniv]

hi
first let me say that im not a php programmer (till now all i did was asp)
i realize that php is kinda easy to understand and im giving it a shot...
so please be patience... (-:
i want to do this:
take varible from a url, in asp i could use request.queryst ring but i understand that its not safe to use it with php (i have to register_global s=on) so i decided to listen and not to use it.
i cant use a form.
so i thought using javascript, take the var from the url put it in a javascript function and then send it to the php function.
or maybe there is a better way to this....
can you guys give some directions or a function the does this
thank you

Using the register_global s=on is a default feature with the modern PHP versions.How ever there are lots of ways to do what ever you need.

You can use sessions to pass the variables with your application.Giv e it a try by using this Tutorials.

And according to your suggestion,if you familiar with JS that also possible, with some ajax.
Read thisThread you will get a answer. here no need of ajax. try to find out it by your self.

if the address is this index.php?id=va lue

then the variable id could be use like this $_GET['id']
if you want to read all the query string (variable and their values) you can use $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']

no need to use javascript for this even if safe mode is enable.

also if you use the method post you can use the variabla with this syntax $_POST['variable']

you mean:
the url is ....index.php?i d=XXX
and in the index.php i do $_GET[id] and i will get the XXX?
