javascript in while loop

[doddsey_65]

I have a problem where i am including javascript in a while loop but the id for the link always stays the same.

 

start while loop.....
$thread_topic_id = $topic_info->thread_topic_id;
<script type="text/javascript">

link[0] = '<a href="index.php?forum=<?php echo $forum_id; ?>&topic=<?php echo $thread_topic_id; ?>">View Topic</a>'

</script>

 

the $thread_topic_id variable is always the last record to be displayed. I have 5 records pulled. how would i get it to display the correct id?

Can you post your actual code?

while ($topic_info = mysql_fetch_object($topic_info_query)) 
	{
$thread_topic_id = $topic_info->thread_topic_id;
	?>
<script type="text/javascript">
var defaultMenuWidth="150px" //set default menu width.

var linkset=new Array()
//SPECIFY MENU SETS AND THEIR LINKS. FOLLOW SYNTAX LAID OUT

linkset[0]='<a href="index.php?forum=<?php echo $forum_id; ?>&topic=<?php echo $thread_topic_id; ?>">View Topic</a>'
linkset[0]+='<a href="">View Newest Post</a>'
linkset[0]+='<a href="">Subscribe</a>'

return false;

}

if (ie5||ns6)
document.onclick=hidemenu

</script>

<?php
	$topic_time_posted = date('F j, Y, g:i a', strtotime($topic_info->topic_time_posted));
	$topic_url_name = $topic_info->topic_name;
	$topic_url_name = str_replace(' ', '_', $topic_url_name);
	echo "<div class=\"forum_row\">";
	echo "<div class=\"icon\"><img src=\"images/default_icon.png\" alt=\"thread\" /></div>";
	echo "<div class=\"icon2\"><img src=\"images/topic_icon.png\" alt=\"thread\" /></div>";
	echo "<a href=\"index.php?forum={$forum_id}&topic={$topic_info->thread_topic_id}\" onMouseover=\"showmenu(event,linkset[0])\" onMouseout=\"delayhidemenu()\">";

 

that is the code for starting the while loop and is shown up until the part where i use the javascript in the html.

You keep saving data to the same array index over and over.
