Incorporate javascript call into php

[Lassie]

I want to incorprate a javascript into my existing php.

The line in question display an image retrieved by refernece to a database.

I want the js to display a pop up  when the image is roled over.

I cant seem to write this without a parse error.

The existing code is

<?php
echo "<a href='show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}'>
        	<img src= './images/{$row['pix']}' border='0'
              width='100' height='80'></a><br />";

The js code is

<a href="#" onmouseover="ajax_showTooltip('demo-pages/js-calendar.html',this);return false" onmouseout="ajax_hideTooltip()">Info</a>	

 

My attempt is

<a href="onmouseover="ajax_showTooltip('demo-pages/js-calendar.html',this);return false" onmouseout="ajax_hideTooltip()"<?php('show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}')?><img src= <?php'./images/{$row['pix']}'?> border='0' width='100' height='80'></a><br />";

Any advice is much appreciated.

echo "<a href=\"#\" onmouseover=\"ajax_showTooltip('demo-pages/js-calendar.html',this);return false\" onmouseout=\"ajax_hideTooltip()\">Info</a>";

?>

Hi thanks for coming back

I think maybe you missed all of the code, the php part, as follows:-

<a href="onmouseover="ajax_showTooltip('demo-pages/js-calendar.html',this);return false" onmouseout="ajax_hideTooltip()"(<?php'show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}')?><img src= <?php'./images/{$row['pix']}'?> border='0' width='100' height='80'></a><br />";

I have modified the script to this. Still parse error.

Can anybody help please.

<a href="<?php('show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}')?>"onmouseover="ajax_showTooltip('demo-pages/js-calendar.html',this);return false" onmouseout="ajax_hideTooltip()"<?php('show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}')?><img src= <?php'./images/{$row['pix']}'?> border="0" width="100" height="80"></a>

[Lassie]

Ok I tried this. No good yet.

<?php
  echo'  <a href="('show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}')?>"onmouseover="ajax_showTooltip('demo-pages/js-calendar.html',this);return false" onmouseout="ajax_hideTooltip()"<?php('show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}')?><img src= <?php'./images/{$row['pix']}'?> border="0" width="100" height="80"></a>';
              

[DeanWhitehouse]

not that

 

<a href="<?php echo 'show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}'; ?>"onmouseover="ajax_showTooltip('demo-pages/js-calendar.html',this);return false" onmouseout="ajax_hideTooltip()"<?php echo 'show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}';?>><img src= "<?php echo './images/{$row['pix']}';>" border="0" width="100" height="80"></a>

[Lassie]

Hi Thanks. Sorry it still doesnt parse. Do i need to \ some where?

[lemmin]

Going off of Blade280891's code, I think you are missing a '?' for the ending "?>":

<a href="<?php echo 'show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}'; ?>"onmouseover="ajax_showTooltip('demo-pages/js-calendar.html',this);return false" onmouseout="ajax_hideTooltip()"<?php echo 'show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}';?>><img src= "<?php echo './images/{$row['pix']}';?>" border="0" width="100" height="80"></a>

[Lassie]

Ok I see that and still get the error.

[lemmin]

What exactly is the parse error you are getting?

[DeanWhitehouse]

add

error_reporting(E_ALL);

to the top of the page

[Lassie]

The error is

parse error,unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or "," in line 47

[lemmin]

Can you show the full code or a few more lines around line 47?

[Lassie]

Here is the full page in al its glory.

Thanks for your interest.

I think the problem is the single quotes with the array variable inside. Change these two lines to use double quotes like this:

    <td><a href="<?php echo "show_book.php?product_id={$row['product_id']}";?>>
        	<img src=<?php echo "./images/{$row['pix']}";?> border='0'
