    passing php date variable to javascript function

    Hi all,

    How to pass the php date variable to javascript function. Here is the code I have tried out, but this is not recovering the date correctly in the javascript function

    Code:
    <html>
<script type="text/javascript">

function add($date1){

alert($date1)
}
</script>
<body>
<?php
$date1 = date("y-m-d");
<input type="submit" value="GO" onclick="add('.date1.')">
?>
</body>
</html>
    When I alert the date1 variable in javascript, it will give some junk value instead of date. How to get the date value into javascript variable

    With regards

          Its simple instead of writing
          Code:
           
function add($date1){

alert($date1)
}
          just write it like this
          Code:
           
function add(date1)
{
alert(date1);
}

<input type="submit" value="GO" onclick="add('<? echo $date1; ?>')">
          Do above changes and it will definately work. BEST OF LUCK

              Remember to keep your php seperate from your javascript!

              JS will have a fit if you try and include a php $ variable ;)
