PHP variables to Javascript variables?

[lalnfl]

I have this

 

xmlhttp.open("GET","promotions.php?promotion_id=$promotion_id&show_id=$show_id&add_match="+str,true);

 

And I want to have it where the php $_GET variables can transfer into javascript variables so that I can have the $promotion_id and $show_id in the url. When I run my full script, and there is a form on there that goes to the same page, it shows promotions.php?promotion_id=$promotion_id&show_id=$show_id&add_match, but the $promotion_id and $show_id variables should be numbers, but I don't know how to transfer php GET variables to Javascript? Any help?

If you want the variables to appear in the url, don't use Ajax.

Is there another way of getting info from the database thats not AJAX?

Reload the page.

Without having to manually reload the page? There isn't anything similar to AJAX?

If you want the url to change you need to change the page.

 

There are ways of placing params within a url using anchor tags which allows book markable Ajax. However, without knowing your specific Ajax implementation you likely won't get allot of help in a simple forum reply.

 

Google 'book marks ajax' or similar and you might find a few tutorials. This is however something that really needs to be though about from the startr of your application design and could require quite a bit of reworking if youve already got a significant amount of code.
