在PHP中读取JavaScript变量

Question

I am looking for a way to either read an image src in PHP or read a JavaScript variable in PHP.

The plan: I have a webcam script in JavaScript that takes an image using the base64 Canvas method, but I need it to update a MySQL record using PHP.

After trying many methods; cookies, submit forms, ajax. I decided that making a post here was the best idea.

(!) Use with caution. This is a proof of concept. In PHP you should never just accept and compute client-side data without checking it for malicious code and sanitizing the input. (!)

You could send it to PHP using AJAX by putting your base64-source into formData.

Javascript:

// ajax.js
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); // initialize a new XHR
var formData = new FormData(); // initialize form data
var myFile = 'data:image/png;base64,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';

xhr.open('POST', '/requestHandler.php') // init your request
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
// check if the server was able to compute the XHR
    if(xhr.readyState === XMLHttpRequest.DONE && xhr.status === 200) { 
        // handle the response
        console.log(xhr.responseText) // log the PHP output
    }
}

// a form data element needs a descriptor/name and a value.
formData.append('myfile', myFile);
xhr.send(formData); // send your xhr to the server

PHP:

// requestHandler.php
<?php
if('$_POST') {
    echo $_POST['myfile']; // this is your image source
}

• XMLHttpRequest
• FormData
