PHP/Javascript Intercommunication

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 23.2005

I don’t think this is possible, but does anyone know of a way to have some type of communication between Javascript and PHP code, be it by passing variables between the two or being able to call PHP code from Javascript? Currently the only mechanism I can come up with to have my Javascript code communicate with my PHP code is by using cookies.

It depends on the desired direction of the communication. If you want js to digest the values of PHP variables, you can have them parsed as js variables. For the other direction (from js to PHP) you would have to transfer the js variables' values to the server by submitting a form.

Thanks Pitt.

You're welcome. By the way: the variant PHP to js is very easy to accomplish. Maybe for that part you should consider working without cookies.

while sample is in ASP - principle applies to any server side language.
