Hi Mike!
Generally the only way to send information from a clientside javascript to
a serverside language (in this case PHP) is via a form submit or putting
that value into an HREF the user will click. For example:
<!-- your javascript functions
function show(){
if (!document.all&&!document.layers)
document.option1.t1=screen.width;
document.option1.t2=screen.height;
document.option1.t3=screen.colorDepth;
document.option1.t4=screen.pixelWidth;
return
document.t.t1.value=screen.width
document.t.t2.value=screen.height
document.t.t3.value=screen.colorDepth
document.t.t4.value=screen.pixelDepth
}
show()
function submitForm() {
form = document.option1;
form.submit();
}
// -->
<!-- option #1 // -->
<form action="foo.php" name="option1" method="Post">
<input type="hidden" value="" name="t1">
<input type="hidden" value="" name="t2">
<input type="hidden" value="" name="t3">
<input type="hidden" value="" name="t4">
</form>
<!-- your link // -->
<a href="javascript:submitForm()">Save your screen settings...</a>
(please note: this is all rough code off the top of my lacking caffeine
head...it has not been debugged or anything else. or in other words, it's an
approximation. ;] )
Hope this helps,
- Erik
