Re: php java script

JavaScript has no idea what PHP does... it doesn't even know PHP exists. So your PHP script has to output your JavaScript in its entirety. You need to have a line that not only defines message as an array, but populates it. I would put a for loop after your reset($messages) line that echo's each element into a JavaScript Array Statement Sheridan Saint-Michel Website Administrator FoxJet, an ITW Company www.foxjet.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "AJDIN BRANDIC" <abrandic@coventry.ac.uk> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Friday, September 14, 2001 10:07 AM Subject: [PHP] php java script > Hi > > I am doing a scroll bar with javascript and info pulled from MySQL. > So I execute query and create an array with php called messages.
