My problem is on the 4th line from the bottom. in the HTML <button>
I am trying to create a button IN THE HTML TABLE that when clicked will call a PHP function. But i have to echo the HTML in order to create the table from the mySQL database.
The PHP function I need to call:
function LoadFormPHP($ID){
$con=mysqli_connect("","User636626","EasyPassword","pansyc5_SavedForms");
// Check connection
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}
$sql = sprintf("SELECT `POSTString` FROM `SavedFormsTable` WHERE `ID`=%d",$ID);
$result = mysqli_query($con,$sql);
$row = mysqli_fetch_array($result);
//mysql_close($con);
$_POST = unserialize(base64_decode($row["POSTString"]));
}
The JS function i tried (and failed) to call the PHP function from:
<script>
function LoadFormJS(ID){
alert(ID);
<?php LoadFormPHP(ID) ?>
}
</script>
You just have some syntax issues -
echo '<td><button type="button" onclick="LoadForm(' .$row['ID'] .')">Load Form!</button>';
What you could do to call the PHP function is to surround your button with a form using a hidden input to hold the value of $row['ID']. Clicking on the button would load the proper form at that point and you could ditch the inline JS in favor of a form action.
You cannot mix html (client side) and php (server side) together. For this kind of cases AJAX is a good tool. The onclick can contain a request to a javascript function that fires the request back to your server, and returns the desired HTML.
