Calling php functions with JavaScript
Thanks to asgeo1 and stumpy for answering my previous JavaScript related query. However i've now come across another problem:
Is there any way to call a php function, or execute some php code using JavaScript. I've searched on google for a while but found no real solution.
Basically i use a form to call a javascript function, then i want that javascript to call a php function found within the same page, or failing that be able to execute a few lines of php script from within the javascript.
Any help greatly appreciated

Sounds like you're getting confused with developing on the web.
Javascript (unless specified) is a "client-side" language, meaning that it runs on the clients browser AFTER has page has been compiled and sent from the server. This means that there is no PHP/ASP in the code, only HTML & Javascript.
PHP, ASP, JSP are server-side languages which only run on the server-side.
So to answer your question, no you can't directly get the Javascript to call a PHP (server-side) function, but you can post to a PHP page which will then in turn carry out whatever function u like.

Calling php methods from javascript is possible
calling php methods from javascript is possible by using xmlrpc (see xmlrpc.com) you can call a php methods remotely with javascrit by setting up a xmlrpc server (a php page) and then acces that server within javascript. There are php xmlrpc libs and javascript xmlrpc .js files.
in computersceince everything is possible

A good working solution I think
Hi,
I wrote this code.
The comments say enough I think.
Code:
<HTML>
<BODY>
<?php
if (isset($_GET[action])){
// Retrieve the GET parameters and executes the function
$funcName = $_GET[action];
$vars = $_GET[vars];
$funcName($vars);
} else if (isset($_POST[action])){
// Retrieve the POST parameters and executes the function
$funcName = $_POST[action];
$vars = $_POST[vars];
$funcName($vars);
} else {
// If there is no action in the URL, then do this
echo "<INPUT NAME='btnSubmitAdmin' TYPE='button' ONCLICK='javascript:javaFunction()' VALUE='Call Javafunction() which redirects to a PHP function'>";
}
function phpFunction($v1){
// makes an array from the passed variable
// (note: $vars = 1 string while it used to be a javascript Array)
// with explode you can make an array from 1 string. The seperator is a ,
$varArray = explode(",", $v1);
echo "<BR>function phpFunction<BR><BR>";
echo "v1: $varArray[0] <BR>";
echo "v2: $varArray[1]<BR>";
}
?>
<SCRIPT language="javascript">
function javaFunction(){
// In the varArray are all the variables you want to give with the function
var varArray = new Array();
varArray[0] = "var1";
varArray[1] = "var2";
// the url which you have to reload is this page, but you add an action to the GET- or POST-variable
var url="<?php echo $_SERVER[PHP_SELF];?>?action=phpFunction&vars="+varArray;
// Opens the url in the same window
window.open(url, "_self");
}
</SCRIPT>
</BODY>
</HTML>
regards,
Niels

Patience is a virtue KM, the "famous" NP hard problems may be NP hard now but not necessarily in the future therefore kode_monkey is right.

The simple solution for "How can i call PHP functions from Javascript?"
The simple solution for "How can i call PHP functions from Javascript?"
(i didnt test on i.e. or opera... i tested this on firefox!)
Here you dont need to use XMLHttpRequest or any other complex things.
Code:
// .... here some php lins... variables o some functions....
//... maybe some post variables an some new values.... proccessed over post variables....
<script type="text/javascript">
function test(){
document.getElementById("php_code").innerHTML="<?php for($i=0; $i<10; $i++) echo $i; //maybe a function ?>";
}
</script>
<a href="#" style="display:block; color:#000033; font-family:Tahoma; font-size:12px;" onclick="test(); return false;"> test </a>
<span id="php_code"> </span>
thats all..

javascript PHP example
Hi hasantayyar, welcome to the forums.
Actually, what you posted is not an example of javascript calling a PHP function, but rather using PHP to populate a javascript function. Javascript is client-side and PHP is server-side, so the PHP will run before the page is sent to the browser. In this case, the page's source code will be
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function test(){
document.getElementById("php_code").innerHTML="0123456789";
}
</script>
<a href="#" style="display:block; color:#000033; font-family:Tahoma; font-size:12px;" onclick="test(); return false;"> test </a>
<span id="php_code"> </span>
This will "work", but it is not javascript calling a PHP function.

i see
but this will be usefull for short actions...
for example our php function is
PHP Code:
function doit($w){
swicth($w){
case 'do': echo "you will be logged in?";
case 'loguot': echo "you will be logged our?";
}
}
and so we can use this function like this maybe:
PHP Code:
<?
$w="";
...... actions about w;
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
function test(){
document.getElementById("php_code").innerHTML="<?php
// the doit function's content here
swicth($w){
case 'do': echo "you will be logged in?";
case 'loguot': echo "you will be logged out?";
}
?>";
}
</script>
<a href="#" onclick="test(); return false;"> test </a>
<span id="php_code"> </span>
and yes you are right about client/server side codes. But about simple solutions this will be helpful.

What about activating a javascript function from php? I bet I'm gonna hear about server/client side etc....
Here's the deal:
Have html form, as user enters need to validate fields.
Get values of phone and cell with onBlur activating javascript,
which Sends values to inlaid php testing,
now just need to call a javascript alert and keep user in entry loop until the phone #'s are valid and different
??? Whew....
Anyone?

validate input
Hi timidwind, welcome to the forums.
I'm a bit foggy. What exactly do you want the PHP to do with the javascript code?

Provide an alert pop-up; alerting the user that either (both situations arrived via php tests) a) they have entered either their phone or cell number in the wrong format OR b) both #'s are the same; ...please repair your entries. I have successfully used Javascript to do a simple compare between the two form entries, alert the user and prevent the user to proceed until they're fixed (loop if you will); however that's the only condition tested for within the script. In order to trim, check formatting, and then compare I had to send the values out to php from a javascript capture from an 'on blur' prior to form 'submit'. But now, I've tested them, I need an alert as well as to not proceed until they're fixed.
I can't believe I'm having this much trouble with it though. It seems such a simple concept, to alert the user to entry problems as they happen before submission then receiving a laundry list of problems or re-entries.

validation logic
So if I'm correct, it goes something like:
1: Form page loads
2: User enters data
3: Javascript validates input client-side
4: If not OK shows javascript alert(), else if OK (js-wise) makes (AJAX ??) request to server to check validity server-side
5: If OK server-side do stuff, else if not OK "alert" user of error
I guess to "hold up the alert() until they're fixed", you could test the original input value (the bad one) against the "current" or "new" one to make sure they're differnt and then check server-side again.
Is this what you mean?

Yes n no, ok now I'm confused with that!

Yes n no, ok now I'm confused with that! 
1;2;3; and was 4a show alert; prevent submit until entry(ies) corrected and if correct submit to server side and print report of All entries.(Other problems with entries notified on report)
But because of reading all of the entries here and elsewhere; a)I've gone more of the JavaScript validation for just the two fields;
b)and instead of 'alert(messages)' stopping continued entries being made; having the notice show "after" the submit button is clicked
c) however still stopping a full form submission until just these two fields are correct.
So, it's narrowed down.
To get specific now.... check and validate a phone entry and cell phone entry for (1) not empty (2)format (3)as well as that they aren't the same ....and be specific about the error to correct; and (4)being sure that submission is prevented until they're both correct and not the same.
So, here's the code so far.... (a "code-lette" really, I've pulled out just this part I'm having trouble with.) but I'm having trouble with comparing the two - phone and cell in the validateNmbs function.
Code:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function validateFormOnSubmit(theForm)
{
var reason = "";
reason += validatePhone(theForm.phone);
reason += validateCell(theForm.cell);
//reason += validateNmbs(theForm.phone,theForm.cell);
if (reason != "") {
alert("Some fields need correction:\n" + reason);
return false;
}
alert("All fields are filled correctly");
return false;
}
function validateEmpty(fld)
{
var error = "";
if (fld.value.length == 0) {
fld.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
error = "The required field has not been filled in.\n"
} else {
fld.style.background = 'White';
}
return error;
}
function validateNmbs(fldp,fldc)
{
phoneN=fldp.value;
cellN=fldc.value;
if (phoneN == cellN)
{
error = "The Phone and Cell cannot be the same.\n";
fldp.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
fldc.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
return error;
}
function validatePhone(fld) {
var error = "";
var stripped = fld.value.replace(/[\(\)\.\-\ ]/g, '');
var regex = /^\d{3}-\d{3}-\d{4}$/;
if (fld.value == "")
{
error = "You didn't enter a Phone number.\n";
fld.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
else if (isNaN(parseInt(stripped)))
{
error = "The Phone number contains illegal characters.\n";
fld.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
else if (!(regex.test(fld.value)))
{
error = "The Phone number is the wrong format. Please use the format shown.\n";
fld.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
else if (!(stripped.length == 10))
{
error = "The Phone number is the wrong length. Make sure you included an area code.\n";
fld.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
return error;
}
function validateCell(fld) {
var error = "";
var stripped = fld.value.replace(/[\(\)\.\-\ ]/g, '');
var regex = /^\d{3}-\d{3}-\d{4}$/;
if (fld.value == "")
{
error = "You didn't enter a Cell number.\n";
fld.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
else if (isNaN(parseInt(stripped)))
{
error = "The Cell number contains illegal characters.\n";
fld.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
else if (!(regex.test(fld.value)))
{
error = "The Cell number is the wrong format. Please use the format shown.\n";
fld.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
else if (!(stripped.length == 10))
{
error = "The Cell number is the wrong length. Make sure you included an area code.\n";
fld.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
return error;
}
</script>
<title>PowderBlue</title>
</head>
<body>
<form name="MickeyMC" onsubmit="return validateFormOnSubmit(this)" action="">
<table summary="Registration Form">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td><FONT SIZE="3"><label for="phone">Your telephone number: </FONT>
<FONT SIZE="1">(xxx-xxx-xxxx)</FONT></label></td></TR><TR>
<td><input name="phone" size="35" maxlength="25" type="text"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><FONT SIZE="3"><label for="cell">Your Cell number:</FONT>
<FONT SIZE="1">(xxx-xxx-xxxx)</FONT></label></td></TR><TR>
<td><input name="cell" size="35" maxlength="25" type="text"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td><input name="Submit" value="Send" type="submit" ></td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</form>
</body>
</html>
I've '//' out the problem line; but I'm sure the error is in the function ? validateNmbs( , ) I guess my first queston should be is that since 'fld' isn't a key word; why can't I use 'fldp' and 'fldc' for phone and cell? As you can tell, I'm getting snippets from folks and trying help me to put it all together. I'm sure it's probably something stupid like a ';' or ':' or something, but I don't have a book on JavaScript, just Php and Java, & Html. Different animals I know.
I've tried if fldc.value == fldp.value; if (fldc.value == fldp.value); with and w/out quotes, parenthesis, all which ways, then tried here to set the values to vars; but just can't get it to work. Without the '//' it sends anything to the (''fake'' server) at this point itself really, because I just want to be sure it stops the submit correctly. This excerpt part runs on it's own though, without the comparisson though .
OK, I ramble, yet in my defense after 7-9 hours longdistance on the phone with a coheart trying to do just this part, getting it from where we were to here, it's now early a.m. and we're burnt, she went to bed 2 hours ago!
Thank you for all your help

Thank All; for direct help; AND previous POST
Thank everyone for their time and reading long entries. 
After finally turning in at @5am; waking at 11:30am; and getting right back in.......
IT'S RESOLVED!! I got it!!!!!!!
Frustration over, again thank you all for allowing me to air my problems and frustration code.
FYI: Originally, re: this validation of the phone (causing my first post ) was being done with JavaScript 'onBlur'. Do wish could use it with this newer code; but tried and finally decided ... don't mess with it if it works!
1) with only the comparison of these phone entries being done there.
2) then 'trying' to go out and do regex/ereg in php..on them successfully.. but then...........
3) then trying to get back to JavaScript to finally stop submission based on regex/ereg results until the numbers were fixed
I was circling... wrong I'm sure. Then tried to do all in JavaScript with onBlur and couldn't seem to get it all done & working, until I found, after hours of searching some tutorial sites with some conceptually similar code I could adapt.
Just 4 days, long days, on 'n off, on the phone long-distance trying to solve just this ''round a bout!'
Here's what I/we (I) finally got working. My long distance coding buddy (whom FYI is the one with the 'not so helpful' JavaScript book.  )
I didn't have to change the '//' code calling this function; other than removing '//'.
Code:
function validateNms(fldp,fldc)
{
var strippedP = fldp.value.replace(/[\(\)\.\-\ ]/g, '');
var strippedC = fldc.value.replace(/[\(\)\.\-\ ]/g, '');
if (strippedP === strippedC)
{
error = "The Phone and Cell cannot be the same.\n";
fldp.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
fldc.style.background = 'PowderBlue';
}
else if (fldp.value != fldc.value)
{
error = "";
}
return error;
}
Finally got it! So Jazzed. Just a bit of 'clean up for the rest of the vals' and we'll be good to go.  ?
Again Thank you all for eMails and opinions and suggestions. It was Mittineague whom made me STOP and think my logic through again, thank you. If you were having trouble understanding my explanation; Now you can imagine how spinning my head was... I thought I understood it!
Thank you for all your help === NO LONGER confused
If anyone wants the entire code for all the pages, ( doubt it really) eMail me at timidwind@yahoo.com
Bye all. Good programming.
PS: to kode_monkey Quote: "In computer science everything is possible"
|
In our (my 'coding buddy' & I) ...averaging @ 10 years each (neither consecutively) floating with different languages including:
Basic, Assembly, COBOL, Programming Logic(yeah forgot a lot about that one huh?), Pascal, Visual Basic,
Visual C++, C, C++, PHP, HTTP/HTML, Java, ...and still some others that fall under the category as obsolete.
.. some in college years ago, ...some others by trying to teach myself/ourselves as the needs arose; We generally & eventually have 'gotten it done' unfortunately, without the opportunity of these types of forums.
Point??? So, when my 'coding buddy' and I get coding and run into a road block we used to say that 'between the two of us we make on h??! of a coding machine!' sometimes adding that 'if it's possible 'we'll find out how' and if it's not possible? 'we'll find out how to make it possible.' Only NOW we're so behind computer evolution and DevA Forums is here!!!! Thank Goodness.
So... yes: Totally agreed. "In computer science everything is possible." ...I would add "..some of us bend programming to it's limits and then some, making it jump higher and go places and do things nobody even ever thought to go or do." (the latter because we've come up with some doozy solutions to unique problems; as well as with researching 'how to' do things, I've seen others do the same!)
Thank you all, your posts really helped.
Thumbs up and drink up if you want to  ... To this site and other helpful ones around!

You can use jqSajax (please search with Google) to call PHP method/function from javascript.

Hello,
I’d like to get the variable police = policeFromJavascript into my php code. How can I do it that way?
<script type="text/javascript">
function showDirPhoto(){
document.getElementById('JavaSidebarPh').innerHTML = "<?php for($i=0; $i<$nbFolderPhoto; $i++){print "<a onMouseOver=`showDirPhotoPhoto($i);`>$photoNameDir[$i]</a><br/>"; } ?>";
}
function showDirPhotoPhoto(police){
document.getElementById('JavaSidebarPh1').innerHTM L = "<?php for($i=0; $i<$nbPhoto[policeFromJavascript]; $i++){print $photoDir[policeFromJavascript][$i];} ?>";
}
</script>

Ok I found an alternative with a double loop. It’s working fine with IE7 but why isn’t it working with firefox.
Code:
function showDirPhoto()
{
document.getElementById('JavaSidebarPh').innerHTML = "<a onmouseover=`document.getElementById(\'JavaSidebar Ph1\').innerHTML = \'<a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-06-14/001.jpg\\\');\\\">001.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-06-14/002.jpg\\\');\\\">002.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-06-14/003.jpg\\\');\\\">003.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-06-14/004.jpg\\\');\\\">004.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-06-14/005.jpg\\\');\\\">005.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-06-14/006.jpg\\\');\\\">006.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-06-14/007.jpg\\\');\\\">007.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-06-14/008.jpg\\\');\\\">008.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-06-14/009.jpg\\\');\\\">009.jpg</a><br>\';`>2008-06-14</a><br><a onmouseover=`document.getElementById(\'JavaSidebar Ph1\').innerHTML = \'<a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-10-19/006.jpg\\\');\\\">006.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-10-19/007.jpg\\\');\\\">007.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-10-19/008.jpg\\\');\\\">008.jpg</a><br><a onMouseOver=\\\"p002(\\\'site/foot/pictures/2008-10-19/009.jpg\\\');\\\">009.jpg</a><br>\';`>2008-10-19</a><br>";

Here you dont need to use XMLHttpRequest or any other complex things.
Code:
// .... here some php lins... variables o some functions....
//... maybe some post variables an some new values.... proccessed over post variables....
<script type="text/javascript">
function test(){
document.getElementById("php_code").innerHTML="<?php for($i=0; $i<10; $i++) echo $i; //maybe a function ?>";
}
</script>
<a href="#" style="display:block; color:#000033; font-family:Tahoma; font-size:12px;" onclick="test(); return false;"> test </a>
<span id="php_code"> </span>
thats all.. |
You have no idea how much easier you just made my job and/or life. You are the man. I would like to add that "kode_monkey" is a pretentious fartknocker. Booya!

OK you guys seem to be more helpful than another web developer forum I have tried, so here goes.
I have created javascript methods that create and display a faux analog meter given the min, max, ticks, etc. to display a numeric value.
I wish to get that numeric value from a public web page (textpage.txt) on a public server external to my site.
I think that I can get the page text using cURL methods in a php script, but as with some of these posts I need to get the text into a string var of a javascript parsing routine.
So how do I go about all that ( in simple terms for my simple mind)?

Thanks for this. It is the only pertinent and appropriate solution to my question. However, I find that the cURL call is only returning the cryptic message "Some error occured".
I picked an arbitrary page to test with and I am still stumped.
Here is my PHP code:
Code:
<?php
include('jAPI-CORE.php');
// class to get text of external page
class GetHtml
{
public function getPage()
{
curl_init("http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/ftpdir/latest/wwv.txt");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
if (curl_exec($ch) === false)
{
return "Error: " + curl_error($ch) + "<br />\n";
}
else
{
return curl_multi_getcontent($ch);
}
}
}
//Create new instance of jAPIBaseClass with names
//of all classes that you want to use them separeted with comma...
new jAPIBaseClass('GetHtml');
?>
The web page has :
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" >
document.write("<p>Getting page...</p>");
document.write(GetHtml.getPage());
</script>
I have tried a number of things in the PHP but to no different result.
=== UPDATE 15 Sept 2011 =====
Although it is not my default browser and I only use it for compatibility checking, Google Chrome has a debug console that is useful. Running this script provides a message that says the return value is described as javascript but is returned as MIME type HTML. This message does not appear in the FireFox or IE debug console output. Anyone have ideas?

jquery.php - a plugin solution to calling PHP functions within JavaScript
I recently published version 2.0 of jquery.php, my own solution to the problem of calling and using PHP functions within javascript: h t t p s://github.com/Xaxis/jqueryphp
I've developed a few different ways in which one can use PHP in there JavaScript ranging from arbitrary execution of PHP strings to sending JSON formatted blocks of PHP pseudo-code.
In addition, function chaining is supported between PHP function calls.
I hope this helps anyone who is interested.
