using php to grab variables from memory that javascript has put in memory

[todayme]

I have three text boxes, first one is the dropdownindusty.php below, the next one is the static html you see down further, when the second text box changes the java scipt grabs both values and stores them in a variable.

 

At the end of that java script I am going to ask it to call another function, which will be a php script which will grab the two variables and do what it needs before populating the third text box.

 

My question is, how do with PHP grab the values of those two variables?  Can this be done?

 

<?php

      include("dropdownindustry.php");

      ?>

     

     

     

     

     

</td>

                  </tr>

                  <tr>

                    <td width="27%" height="22"><b>State:</b></td>

                    <td width="82%" height="22"><select size="1" name="State" onchange="captureselection()">

                    <option value="Brisbane">Brisbane</option>

                    <option value="Queensland">Queensland</option>

                    <option value="New_South_Whales">New South Whales</option>

                    <option value="Victoria">Victoria</option>

                    <option value="South_Australia">South Australia</option>

                    <option value="Western_Australia">Western Australia</option>

                    </select></tr>

                   

                   

                 

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">

 

function captureselection()

 

{

 

var locatestate = window.location

var locateindustry = window.location

 

document.Leads.State.value = locatestate

document.Leads.Industry.value = locateindustry

 

var cool_state = document.Leads.State.value

var cool_industry = document.Leads.Industry.value

 

document.write(cool_state);

document.write(cool_industry);

 

}

                    </SCRIPT>
