yes, maybe there is somethin fundemental about PHP that I do not
understand here. (I am addin a cross post to c.l.javascript land in case
they know the answer - they know DOM very well)
I have a page with a value in a FORM. I am using a construct that lets
me execute some PHP _in response to an event on the page_, like the
click of a button. The php is executed in the context of that page
document.
So I expected to be able to read the contents of the form. Javascript
can do it. In the next line in the added code, as a matter of fact,
there is that value.
I need PHP to do the SQL query. The PHP SQL query is all set up, it
works. I need to read the value from the INPUT to add to the SQL query.
I have the value in javascript. How can I pass that single bit of data?
perhaps I need to pass the var FROM javascript TO the PHP code block. Or
else read the DOM element in the PHP as I originally asked.
This is a 100% roadblock at this moment. Insights are appreciated.
thanks!
