			terms_code = '%s', discount = %01.03f, discount_type = '%s', po_date = '%s',

/*$rs = $db->db_query($sql);

else $bjarr[0] = true;*/
$bjarr[0] = $sql;
$bjarr[1] = $url;
//$db->db_free_result($rs);
return $bjarr;
}

What im trying to do is save the url as it was called from the javascript function to the PHP function and then back to the callback javascript function for the wind.location command.

 

But the weird part is that somewhere between the javascript to php agent function, the url gets cut short (i.e. index.php?mode=po_entry&sub=header&po=xxxx becomes index.php?mode=po_entry). I have tried to error check if there's another way the url got cut short, but as i error checked every javascript code leading to the php code, i concluded that the problem would have occured on the translation to the php code.

 

in addition, the url always get cut short to index.php?mode=po_entry, which made me think that the ampersand (&) probably have something to do with it, but it didnt.

 

So pphp gurus, i ask for your help. Please tell me what went wrong in my code?

 

Thanks.

the ampersand is probably the problem. you may need to url_encode the url via javascript. don't know how it's done, but i bet google does.
