RE: [PHP] newbie question about variables

2001-04-09 Thread Cheng, Kynan (London)

Thanks Maxim for your help,

If you have a sec could you also please tell me how PHP does the variables?
When you say JS uses your browser as it's server and PHP uses the remote
server, are you referring to the way they call their functions?


Thanks
Kynan

RE: [PHP] newbie question about variables

2001-04-09 Thread PHPBeginner.com

Yes, you were right, this works just the way you wrote.

And yes, there is a JavaScript way to do it, but I guess PHP is better for
this kind of jobs. JavaScript is using your browser as it's 'server' while
PHP uses your remote server. Therefore, all PHP will do is generate HTML
code to send to client. Make a way it dynamically assigns you the right
image and, vuala! Just if you would have coded that HTML page yourself. No
JavaScript.

Hi,

I have not coded script in html before, so I was wondering if someone could
look this over briefly:

I'm a bit confused as to how variables are passed/stored.  Do the variables
get saved on the client machine? Do they have to be specifically passed from
page to page and back?  Are they automatically returned to the calling page?


If I have a page with thumbnail, and I'd like to call a page that
dynamically places the original photo into it (based on the thumbnail
clicked) does it go a little something like this?

in index.html:


in picture.html



Is there a similar javascript method?

Thanks
Kynan

Put this.










When the user clicks the img item, JavaScript will put the foo hidden
input to the value selected.

Something like the following HTML :

  
  
  

And in foo.php have :

  print $var; // 1 or 2 or 3

Also consider the following :

  

To have it load the current page rather then foo.php.

What about reading part III, chapter 16 "Creating and manipulating images"
in the PHP manual at http://php.net/manual.
