Javascript variable in php form

[melting_dog]

Is there anyway to make this work without converting the JavaScript variable to php?

(a javascript variable inside a value tag inside a form tag within php):

 

<script type="text/javascript">

var curdate = new Date();

</script>

 

<?php

echo '<table>';

echo '<form name="form1" method="post" action="forumsNewCommentProcess.php">';

 

echo '<tr>';

echo '<td class="headerCol">Date</td>';

echo '<td><input name="comDate" type="text" value="' + curdate + '" size="80" maxlength="150" /></td>';

echo '</tr>';

 

echo '</form>';

echo '</table>';

 

Any help would be appreciated!

 

Cheers

Just don't use PHP to echo the html, then you can use the js as normal.

Thanks.

 

Yeah...I really should have thought of that early
