Re: Re: PHP files in the SRC attribute of an SCRIPT element

You will want to write PHP code to output the java-script. Because the java-script (client side scripting) gets executed without communicating with the server there is no PHP engine that java-script can push the PHP through on the client machine. So you would want to do something like: <?PHP $string = "I want a new pop-up message"; $javascript = "<script>alert( $string )</script>"; echo $javascript; ?> Karl-Heinz Christian Zeck wrote:

Thank you for your quick reply. I tried to modify the file. I removed all it's content and wrote only a single line: alert("test"); When I refresh the main page, I get the alert message - this means the file was loaded successfuly. Then I tried this code: alert("<?php echo 'test';?>"); This way it doesn't work, no alert message, so the file wasn't loaded. Any ideas? Thanks! On 3/17/06, Barry <barry@flyerheaven.de> wrote:

Hi everybody,

Are you allowed to do this? I mean, is the php file parsed by the PHP

engine

first and a js code is generated that will be used by the script element?
