Pass them along the querystring, so that when the JavaScript popup
window opens and it goes to a certain page, those values are part of
that URL. As GET variables.
// Your PHP vars:
$var1 = 'Metroid';
$var2 = 'Metal Gear';
// Create a querystring:
$PHPqueryString = "var1=" . $var1 . "&var2=" . $var2;
// echo the browser string for the popup:
print "<a href=\"\" onclick=\"openPopup("
. $PHPqueryString
. "\">Popup!</a>\n";
// here's your JavaScript function
function openPopup(queryString)
{
var detailwindow = window.open('./target.php?' + queryString,
'windowname',
'toolbar=no,directories=no,
status=no,menubar=no,resizable=yes,
copyhistory=no,scrollbars=yes,
width=500,height=300');
detailwindow.moveTo('150', '150');
}
Now in your new script you can access these GET vars from PHP or from JS!
