[napsternapster]

hi..

My aim is to pass the content of an array to javascript function from php

 

//javascript function with two  parameters

function deleteFromList(text,fullList)

{

var newList = new Array();

 

newList = fullList;

 

//alert(newList);

var i = 1;

var found = "no";

var flag = "";

 

for(i =1; i <= 2 ;i++)

{

var j = 1;

for(j = 1;j <= newList.length; j++)

{

if(newList[j] == selected[j])

{

flag = found;

}

}

 

//alert(selected);

}

if(flag != found)

{

//unSelected = selected;

unSelected.push(selected)

}

alert(unSelected);

//return deleteFromList(text,unSelected);

}

================

php and html code to pass the array to deleteFromList

for($i = 2;$i <= 10; $i++)

{

//$ct = $ct_id ;

$previous = 0;

//$ctid++;

$display_info .="<select onchange=\"showNext(this.value,'txt$ct_id"."_$i','','','$counter','$ct_id')\" 

style =\"display:none\" id=\"select_id$ct_id"."_$i"."\" name=\"select_id$ct_id"."_$i"."\" >

<option value=\"0\">-- Select one --</option>";

 

//Populates the dropdown list from the $FullListDesc and the$FullListID

//array_push($FullListID,$FullListID);

for($d = 0;$d < $counter;$d++)

{

$display_info  .= "<option value=\"$FullListID[$d]\">$FullListDesc[$d]</option><br>";

 

}

$display_info .=" </select>";

 

$next = $i + 1;

if($i > 1)

{

$previous = $next - 1;

}

$ctid++;

//the onblur function contains 4 parameters

if(($i >1 ) && ($i <= 9))

{

 

 

$display_info .= " <input type=\"text\"  id=\"txt$ct_id"."_$i"."\"

name=\"txt$ct_id"."_$i"."\" style =\"display:none\"

onblur=\"deleteFromList(this.value,'$FullListID[$ctid]'),

showNext(this.value,'select_id$ct_id"."_$next','select_id$ct_id"."_$previous','txt$ct_id"."_$i')\"

size=15 maxlength=70>   ";

echo $FullListID[$ctid];

}

hi..

My aim is to pass the content of an array to javascript function from php.The textboxes and dropdowns are created dynamically and the name starts for dropdown select_id1_1 ->select_id1_9,select_id2_1 ->select_id2_9,select_id3_1->select_id3_9 and select_id4_1 ->select_id4_9.And Textboxes starts from txt1_1 -> txt1_9,txt2_1 -> txt2_9,txt3_1 -> txt3_9,txt4_1 -> txt4_9.The name of the array to be passed to javascript function on an onblur function of the textboxes is $FullList. $FullList is an array that contains id's of contact types from a database.

 

//javascript function with two  parameters

function deleteFromList(text,fullList)

{

  var newList = new Array();

 

  newList = fullList;

 

  //alert(newList); 

  var i = 1;

  var found = "no";

  var flag = "";

 

  for(i =1; i <= 2 ;i++)

  {

      var j = 1;

      for(j = 1;j <= newList.length; j++)

      {

        if(newList[j] == selected[j])

        {

            flag = found;           

        }                 

      }

     

      //alert(selected);

  }

  if(flag != found)

  {

      //unSelected = selected;

      unSelected.push(selected)

  }

  alert(unSelected);

  //return deleteFromList(text,unSelected);
