including PHP generated array into .js file

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 20.2004

Hello,
I am having php generate an array which needs to be accessed by a javascript function in a .js file.

I have tried including the following in the .js file:

document.write(“<SCR” + “IPT LANGUAGE=’JavaScript1.2′ SRC=’New_Arrays4_2.js.php’ TYPE=’text/javascript’></SCR” + “IPT>”);

but this doesn’t seem to work.

I know the output of the php file is ok because when I paste its output into the .js file it works fine.

Thank you for any help.

@Khalid_AliMar 20.2004 — you will need to go through the data on php side and generate an array in the js side

$dataArr="";

forwach($data as $key=>$value){

dataArr .= "'".$value."',"

}

make sure that remove an extra comma at the end of the string

var dataArray = new Array(echo $dataArr);

somethin like this will work

@patty010authorMar 20.2004 — I am sorry , but I am confused about your reply--


the js script is basically a hierarchical menu generator in which you are supposed to manually insert the menu elements.

I generated mine using the php script--it prints out this:


this.item0="Automation Systems"

this.icon_rel0= 0

this.url0='get.php?id=1'

this.item0_0="Automated Carts"

this.icon_rel0_0= 0

this.url0_0='get.php?id=2'

but don't know how to get the js file to access the data--the document .write that I used doesn't seem to work...

thanks,

Patty
