[PHP] how to pass value from popup window to php program
Hi all,
I met one problem as below. To express clearly i use
some psu-code instead:
//this is php code
if ($need_user_email_address)
{
//we popup a window to let user fill his/her email
popup_window($give_me_your_email);
//we get the user email from the popup window
echo your email is $give_me_your_email \n;
}
I do not know whether it can be implemented or not, if
it can be done, i really do not know how to produce
the popup window and how to pass value from the popup
window to the php main code.
Thanks in advance!

[PHP] how to pass value from popup window to php program
Hi all,
I am a new comer for PHP. now my situation like below,
to express clearly i used some expression instead of
PHP code in below php code:
if ($need_to_know_your_email) {
//popup one window to get the user' email
JavaScript:window.open(leave your email address);
//then i try to get the $emailaddress from the
//popup window , for example as $emailaddress
echo your email is $emailaddress\n;
}
I just do not know whether above code can be
implemented or not, if so, how can i get the email
address from the popup window?
Thanks,
zhunbao

Re: [PHP] how to pass value from popup window to php program
For info on JavaScript functions, like window.open() use google to find resources.
For passing back values to PHP you need a script that does 2 things:
- Ask for the email address
- Handle the address with PHP
Because PHP will not wait for a user to put in it's e-mail address,
these are two separate pieces of code.
You can do this for example by checking if the email address has
been entered:
?php // myscript.phtml
if ($email)
{
// Part 1
} else
{
// Part 2
}
?
Part 1 handles the email address the way you want
Part 2 can be done in a number of ways, as long as the e-mail address
gets entered and send back to the script.
A simple way is using a form:
FORM ACTION=myscript.phtml
INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME=email
/FORM
But you could also use JavaScript to create a dialog
and 'redirect' to your script, passing the email address
in the URL, probably something like:
email = prompt(Please enter your address);
document.window.location.href = myscript.phtml?email= + escape(email);

Re: [PHP] how to pass value from popup window to php program
Storing variables on the client-side using JavaScript can be done by setting a cookie. The cookie data will ofcourse be available to PHP when the next script is executed (for example through a link or redirect). bvr.

I don't know how to grab JavaScript variables and use them as PHP variables, perhaps someone else on the list can help here. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] how to pass value from popup window to php program
There is no way of passing a variable from JS to PHP without sending something back to the server or using a cookie. I haven't followed the thread at all, but if I needed to pass a value from a pop-up window to a PHP program, I'd probably do something like this: In the pop-up window, once the form's submit button is clicked or a Click here link is clicked, the page calls the PHP program. The PHP program processes the variable (sticking the value in the database, whatever), then outputs a bit of HTML/JS just to close the window. Note that absolutely NOTHING will happen if the user closes the window by clicking the close widget on the window itself.
