JavaScript in PHP Syntax

[ShoeLace1291]

I'm making a calander and I want a cell to change colors every time a user hovers over it.  I'm trying to echo an onmouseover thing but I can't get the syntax right.

 

echo ' onmouseover="this.className='hover'">$counter</td>\n';

 

Anyone have any ideas?

[trq]

<?php echo " onmouseover='this.className=\"hover\"'>$counter</td>\n"; ?>

[Lamez]

print 'onmouseover="this.className='hover'">$counter</td>\n';

 

or

print <<<JS
onmouseover="this.className='hover'">$counter</td>

JS;

 

do not forget your <?php ?>

You can also use CSS to achieve this..might like it better than java!  Just set the hover state.

 

The other ways work just as well tho =)

I don't think IE supports that... I think they only support hover on links.

You are right, Little Guy, what's stupid is that the MS's html documentation shows that it DOES work on many tags that it doesn't. If you click styles on the td tag it shows hover there: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms535903.aspx

 

Anyway, you might want to make sure that you are echoing that in the right place

<td
<?php
echo " onmouseover=\"this.className='hover'\">$counter</td>\n";
?>

 

Same as thorpe's, but I have always used mini quotes on the inside, it probably works both ways, though.
