trying to change a php variable via js and echo back but its not working, been on it for days!!
I have a function handleServerResponse() called below, that alerts connection status, and getting the ok at status 200 so cant understand why my php variabe is not changing! driving me insane!
function process() // send the info to the server
{
if(xmlHttp)
{
try
{
xmlHttp.open("GET","myFile.php?phpvar="+jsvar,true);
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = handleServerResponse; //alerts connection status = all ok
xmlHttp.send(null);
}
catch(e)
{
alert(e.toString());
}
}
}
// server side script
<?php
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding = "UTF-8" standalone = "yes" ?>';
$phpvar;
$phpvar = $_GET['phpvar'];
echo "new phpvar value = ".$phpvar;
?>
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Cheers
