My index.php page includes a config.php file, which returns an array that I have defined some variables in by using "define('var1' , 10)".
I am trying to validate my forms input, but I can't figure out how I can reference var1 from within the JS function. What is the easiest way to do this?
Just echo it to a javascript variable:
<script type="text/javascript">
var var1JS = "<?php echo $var1; ?>";
</script>
Not quite sure I am full understanding without seeing the code but, you could echo the variable from the PHP array in the JS function (as above answer).
Or Echo the entire JS query:
$y = count($PHPdata_array);
echo "function exampleFunction() {";
echo "var ArrayName = [";
for ($i = 1; $i <= $y; $i+=2) {
echo "{" . $PHPdata_array[$i] . "," . $PHPdata_array[$i-1] . "},";
}
echo "];";

I am trying to define javascript variable from php variable in the running php code.
Here is my code:
echo "<script>";
echo "var s1 = '<?php echo isset($s1) ? $s1 : '' ?>';";
echo "getAirdrop();";
echo "</script>";
But this code not defining the javascript variable.
You don't need php tags again.
Try it like this:
echo "<script>";
echo "var s1 = '";
echo isset($s1) ? $s1 : '';
echo "';";
echo "getAirdrop();";
echo "</script>";
You can do it in one line, just concatenate all yours echo :
echo "<script> let s1 = ".isset($s1) ? $s1 : ''." getAirdrop(); </script>"
I am using following code to pass PHP variables to javascript. but it is not working.
function gto(str) {
document.getElementById('goto').action = str;
document.getElementById('ID').value = <?php echo "$userid" ?>;
document.getElementById('name').value = <?php echo "$user_name" ?>;
document.getElementById('gname').value = <?php echo "$usergname" ?>;
document.getElementById('fmname').value = <?php echo "$userfname" ?>;
document.getElementById('img').value = <?php echo "$userimg" ?>;
document.getElementById('email').value = <?php echo "$useremail" ?>;
document.getElementById('goto').submit();
}
Following is the PHP code
<?php
if($_POST["name"] == null)
{
$user_name = 'Annomyous';
}
else{
$user_name = $_POST["name"];
$userid= $_POST["id"];
$usergname= $_POST["gname"];
$userfname= $_POST["fname"];
$userimg= $_POST["img"];
$useremail= $_POST["email"];
}
echo "<p style='color : white'>$user_name";
echo "$userid" ;
echo "$gname";
echo "$fname";
echo "$img";
echo "$email";
echo "$user_name";
echo "$user_name</p>";
$user_name =htmlspecialchars($user_name);
$user_name =str_replace("<script>","", $user_name);
?>
the output is a follows:
ReAlItY TuTs104598758504708047866ReAlItY TuTsReAlItY TuTs//this is php echo output.
JAVASCRIPT OUTPUT:-
function gto(str) {
document .getElementById('goto').action = str;
document.getElementById('ID').value = ;
document.getElementById('name').value = Annomyous;
document.getElementById('gname').value = ;
document.getElementById('fmname').value = ;
document.getElementById('img').value = ;
document.getElementById('email').value = ;
document.getElementById('goto').submit();
}
Function gto is called here:
<button class="w3-btn header-btn" onclick="gto('Contact.php');">Contact Us</button>
I can see in PHP output I am getting all variable output.
but nin juavascript im getting only Annonymous why????
I need to pass post variables to contact us so i am using the form tag and javascript but this is not working Please help me!
Thanks in Advance
values from php to js can be passed in many ways, here's one of them
try to pass the php values when calling the js function, like this:-
<button onclick="gto('Contact.php','<?php echo $userid;?>','<?php echo $username;?>');">Contact Us</button>
and then get values on js function like this:-
function gto(str,userid,username) {
document .getElementById('goto').action = str;
document.getElementById('ID').value = userid;
document.getElementById('name').value =username;
}
that's it, now use the values in js as your wish
Uh, found another issue. The js is in smart quotes, which won't work... "`" is invalid. use "'".
Also, w3schools can't handle php in their editor, so it's no use.
Example for POST requests: https://www.w3schools.com/code/tryit.asp?filename=FQSA8MJYGJ47
Hope this helps.
I need to get javascript variable value in php file.
html example:
UPDATE:
$html = '
<script>
window.runParams.adminSeq="3423423423423";
window.runParams.companyId="2349093284234";
</script>';
Shout I use regex ? regex is very complex to me... any help ?
<?php
$html = '<script>
window.runParams.adminSeq="3423423423423";
window.runParams.companyId="2349093284234";
</script>';
$variables = ["adminSeq", "companyId"];
$counter = 0;
foreach($variables as $variable) {
preg_match_all('/"(.*?)"/', $html, $matches);
${"$variable"} = ($matches[1])[$counter];
$counter++;
}
echo $adminSeq; // Prints out: 3423423423423
echo $companyId; // Prints out: 2349093284234
?>
You can also use GET requests to do this. The link would look like http://localhost/?adminSeq=3423423423423&companyId=2349093284234 then get out these values in PHP with:
<?php
$adminSeq = $_GET["adminSeq"];
$companyId = $_GET["companyId"];
?>
I have this working script yet when I change it to retrieve(supposedly) the value inside $_SESSION["username"], it doesn't retrieve anything. The whole page is saved as .php as I am using some codes that uses PHP.
Code:
echo "<script type=text/javascript>";
echo "var hidden = false;";
echo "function actiondb1() {";
echo "if(!hidden) {";
echo "document.getElementById(\'clickdb1\').style.visibility = \'hidden\';";
echo "document.getElementById(\'db1\').style.visibility = \'visible\';";
echo "document.getElementById(\'db1\').disabled = false;";
echo "document.getElementById(\'db1\').value =".$_SESSION["username"];.";";
echo "}";
echo "}";
echo "</script>";
How can I make the script to properly retrieve the data inside $_SESSION["username"];?
Observe that, for instance, if the value of $_SESSION["username"] is John, your echo will be generating this result:
document.getElementById('db1').value = John;
But John is supposed to be a string and should be wrapped in quotation marks, otherwise JavaScript will understand it as a variable name (which value will be probably undefined).
As Havenard mentioned, this line is missing Javascript single quotes to properly denote a string variable:
echo "document.getElementById(\'db1\').value ='".$_SESSION["username"];."';";
However, you really shouldn't print JS out with PHP if you can help it. Though iatboy's answer answer won't ultimately fix your bug, it is a much cleaner way of doing things.
?>
<script type=text/javascript>;
var hidden = false;
function actiondb1() {
if(!hidden) {
document.getElementById('clickdb1').style.visibility = 'hidden';
document.getElementById('db1').style.visibility = 'visible';
document.getElementById('db1').disabled = false;
document.getElementById('db1').value ='<?php echo $_SESSION["username"];?>';
}
}
</script>;
<?php
Did you start session in this page?If you didn't,use the follow code to start session.
session_start();
Then change your code to
echo "<script type=text/javascript>";
echo "var hidden = false;\n";
echo "function actiondb1() {\n";
echo "alert('".$_SESSION['username']."')\n"; //test code
echo "if(!hidden) {\n";
echo "document.getElementById('clickdb1').style.visibility = 'hidden';\n";
echo "document.getElementById('db1').style.visibility = 'visible';\n";
echo "document.getElementById('db1').disabled = false;\n";
echo "document.getElementById('db1').value ='".$_SESSION["username"]."';\n";
echo "}\n";
echo "}\n";
echo "</script>";
it will be ok.
I don't understand why replace() function doesn't work into my jQuery function:
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
var amount_min = <?php if($_GET['amount_min']) echo $_GET['amount_min']; else echo '0'; ?>;
var amount_min = amount_min.replace(/[^\d]/g, "");
$('input[name=amount]').val(amount_min);
});
Whatever input I give (for example "100ab" or "10.000") it doesn't replace it with "100" or "10000".
How to do?
You forgot to put double-quotes.
var amount_min = "<?php if($_GET['amount_min']) echo $_GET['amount_min']; else echo 0; ?>";
Because, replace works in Strings.
UPDATE #1
If for any religious reason you don't want to wrap the PHP in double quotes then output them along with the number.
var amount_min = <?php echo '"' . ($_GET['amount_min'] ? $_GET['amount_min'] : 0) . '"'; ?>;
UPDATE #2
Compulsory validation you can use:
var amount_min = <?php echo '"' . (int)($_GET['amount_min']) . '"'; ?>;
can you please try this:
$(document).ready(function(){
var amount_min = "<?php if($_GET['amount_min']){ echo $_GET['amount_min'];}else{ echo '0';} ?>";
console.log("original-> "+amount_min);
var amount_min = amount_min.replace(/\D/g,'');
console.log("replaced-> "+amount_min);
});
Your PHP code is outputting a number:
var amount_min = 100;
Since you're expecting a string, wrap it in quotes:
var amount_min = "<?php if($_GET['amount_min']) echo $_GET['amount_min']; else echo '0'; ?>";
I haven't touched PHP in years, but I think you could simplify your code a little:
var amount_min = "<?php echo($_GET['amount_min'] || '0'); ?>";
Also, why don't you just fetch the GET parameter with JavaScript?
You don't need the .replace() code (it also only works on strings); PHP can already do the proper conversion for you:
$(function() {
var amount_min = <?php echo isset($_GET['amount_min']) ? (int)$_GET['amount_min'] : 0; ?>;
$('input[name=amount]').val(amount_min);
});
You could also use filtering for this:
<?php echo filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'amount_min', FILTER_VALIDATE_INT, array('options' => array('default' => 0))); ?>
Note that filter_input would not accept a value like 100abc, so use wisely.
If you still want to use strings safely in JavaScript you should use json_encode().
Btw, any answer that involves an unmodified echo of a request variable from PHP inside JavaScript code is wrong and can cause XSS attacks! You have been warned.
Update
The regular expression based replacement can also be done in PHP:
var amount_min = <?php echo (int)preg_replace('/\D+/', '', isset($_GET['amount_min']) ? $_GET['amount_min'] : 0); ?>;
Since all non-digits are removed, you can safely apply the (int) cast.
