If he doesnt know how to help me then dont bother posting a reply.  And if he does know how to help and does not "volunteer" the info then dont bother replying then either.  Ive been googling this for a while with no success and now with frustration with a reply from and A****le like him.  So please if you dont have a positive or helpfull reply then don't bother.  Forums are about helping not ridiculing people.

So your telling me there is no way to call a PHP function from within href without using javascript? If that is the case that should have been your original reply.  Simply telling someone "thats javascript bro not PHP" is not a clear answer.

 

I think you should learn some Forum etiquette.  You may learn this one day when you ask a question about somthing that is not your Forte and someone wastes your time with snarky remarks.  If you dont learn any furhter etiquette please do not reply to any of my future posts.  It would be much appreciated.

 

PS> thanks for possibly leading me in the right direction....

The way you merged your PHP function into your HTML was so wrong you gave the impression it was a JavaScript function.

If you wana load stuff dynamically into a page you should learn AJAX ... that’s basically the "JavaScript" language of PHP ...

Ok ladies, a work around would be this:

<?php
echo '<a href="'.$_SERVER[php_SELF].'?function=1">Click here to call a function</a>';

if(isset($_GET['function']))
{
foo();
}
?>

 

I don't know about calling a function directly on click. You could try

echo '<a href="#" onclick="'.foo().'">Function</a> but I don't know if it'll work.

Hope that helps.

No that would be a JavaScript syntaxes. PHP is parsed before HTML. When the page is loaded the PHP is static and can't do stuff dynamically unless you use AJAX

You're right actually. Use the GET method instead.
