Java script with php and html

blackzone · 08-03-2004, 05:25 AM

Right now under html I need to run a java script which load a php script.

The php script is used to check if a file exist.

Under the html I'll display the contents of the file if it exist.

I'm having trouble doing it. Especially the part between java script <-> php script. Can give a hand?

you can do it during page loading.

PHP Code:


			
<script language="javascript">

<!--

function DoSomething(file_exists) {

        if(file_exists) foo;

        esle bar;

}



var g_file_exists = "<?=(file_exists("foo/bar/file.bla") ? "1" : "0")?>";



<body onload="DoSomething(g_file_exists)">

.......

Well you could do that as follows (since "load" a php script just means request the script to display the parsed content of it as html):

<script language="JavaScript">

</script>

If some_statement is true then javascript prints out the (parsed) php-code which includes your script.
