I need some help passing a variable to a popup window. The following form
collects input from the user and stores it in the variable $summary.
<?
print "<FORM action=\"hint.php\" METHOD=\"post\">";
$summary = "Hellow universe";
print "<INPUT TYPE=\"hidden\" name=\"summary\" value=\"$summary\"> ";
print "<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Try This\"
onClick=\"window.open('hint.php', 'remote',
'menubar,scrollbars,resizable,width=350,height=200,left=20,top=20');
return false;\">";
print "</form>";
?>
When you click on the "Try This" button, hint.php opens up in another,
smaller window just like I wanted. But the variable $summary doesn't show
up
<?
//hint.php script says this
//THIS LINE PRINTS
print "Here's the hint:<BR>";
//BUT NOT THIS ONE
print $summary;
?>
If I take JavaScript out of the submit coding, the browser window moves
to hint.php and prints the $summary variable.
I'm much more comfortable with PHP than JavaScript. How can I deliver the
text in $summary to a second, smaller window?
Thank you.
