how to handle pop-up windows in php

Question

I've searched extensively on the web about how to handle pop-up windows in PHP without finding any useful info. There is a bit for VBA but not really portable to PHP.

After I modify one or more fields and submit the web page to be saved, this pop-up appears with the OK button to click on that completes the saving process.

Is there a way to handle it via a PHP script?

Answer 1

PHP is a server side language. Any popup on your webpage is probably done with Javascript, which is a client side language (well, at least in this context it is). So no, there's no way to handle this with only PHP.

Answer 2

you can do it with javascript

onclick="centerPopUp('abc.php','windowname1','width=1000, height=1000'); return false;"
<script>
function centerPopUp( url, name, width, height, scrollbars ) { 
str = "";
str += "scrollbars=1,";
str += "width=" + width + ","; 
str += "height=" + height + ",";
str += "resizable=0,"; 
str += "scrollbars=" + scrollbars + ","; 
str += "width=" + width + ","; 
str += "height=" + height + ",";*/
window.open( url, name, str ); 
}
</script>

You can use Use jquery, AJAX, javascript to achieve the requited functionality. Pure PHP Will not able to do this stuff.
