跨度变量没有在php中读取

Question

I have a website that receives parameters in the URL address (www.xxx.html?name=David)

then I assign the value to the html text like this:

<span name="uname" id="uname"> </span>, I'd like to thank you 

<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.0.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
     var userName = getParameterByName('uname');
     document.getElementById("uname").textContent = userName;
});
</script>

up to this point everything works well

now when I try to read again the value in uname in the PHP file in order to send it in the email I have two issues

1. the parameter is not received - emailText = $_POST['uname'];
2. when trying to debug I see the HTML file and js file being loaded and can be debugged but the PHP file doesn't exist in the file tree of the debug

BUT it is being loaded and read because other variables are being read and sent correctly to the email.

Answer 1

You cannot use span with name attribute.

Read this https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_span.asp

If you want to post, use form + proper input element.

And still, it's not very clear you are really trying to do, show us the whole page ...
