Re: [PHP] Spawning new pages
Of all the correct answers that you received you had to pick and use the wrong answer! What?! I only see one answer, Brent Clements. How is it that I could miss some of the messages? I'm reading these through MS Outlook Express with 'Show All Messages' selected. Anyway, is there any way that I can 'imitate' the effect of a user clicking on a link that would open another page? Maybe this is a javascript thing? Thanks.

In fact I was one of the people that responded. Anyway, is there any way that I can 'imitate' the effect of a user clicking on a link that would open another page? Maybe this is a javascript thing? Missing emails aside, this is *not* a PHP issue. Use plain HTML (which PHP is used to create) or Javascript (which PHP can also creates).

[PHP] Spawning new pages
I want one of my functions to create and open a new page. I know how to call an existing page from PHP ala form action, but in this case I want to dynamically create and then display several pages. I'm thinking that perhaps I should assemble some HTML, write it out to a files, then open the HTML file. Is this the best way of going about it? Can it be done without actually writing the HTML to the disk? How do I actually open the page once it's been created? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Spawning new pages
This is simple. echo html; echo body; echo Hello World; echo /body; echo /html; There are many ways to do what you want to do. It's at the core of PHP. -Brent - Original Message - From: Christopher Weaver [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 30, 2004 6:54 PM Subject: [PHP] Spawning new pages I want one of my functions to create and open a new page.

I know how to call an existing page from PHP ala form action, but in this case I want to dynamically create and then display several pages. PHP does not actually do anything on the client side *EXCEPT* to create all the HTML that gets sent to the client. Javascript (not to be confused with Java) or a target= attribute in a link are a few ways in which to spawn a new window. PHP itself does not (and cannot) spawn new windows on it's own. It is merely creates the HTML/Javascript that does it. I'm thinking that perhaps I should assemble some HTML, write it out to a files, then open the HTML file. Is this the best way of going about it? Can it be done without actually writing the HTML to the disk? No because PHP does not interact with the client in the way you (seem to) think it does. The client never sees one bit of PHP. How do I actually open the page once it's been created? See above. hth, Chris. p.s. This is not a jab at you, but I think you've had at least one other non-PHP related question in recent days. My suggestion is to join a web design list that deals with things web related in nature (i.e. HTML, Javascript, PHP, ASP, databases, etc.). You could try TheList found at www.evolt.org or webdesign-l (not sure where that was in found). Also, I think it's important that you seek to completely understand the difference between the server and client and how they interact. (Not to say you're not already doing this, and it's almost more of a natural progression than anything else.) Again, I'm not trying to be harsh, just helpful. And lastly, I've been known to completely misunderstand a person's question as well as underestimate a person's profficiency so forgive me if I've done that here. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Spawning new pages
Here's what I've got In first php file include second.php; createPage(withThis); createPage(withThat); In second php file function createPage { echo HTML; echo BODY; echo more stuff here; echo /HTML; echo /BODY; } Here's the problem. I get only one page, not two. I want a new page each time the function is called. Any ideas?
