i had some issues with understanding how to get javascript (client) variables transferred so they were acessible from php (serverside) as session : get an iframe's "src" value in PHP?
Now im in a situation where i use firebug to try to debug whats going on, but it just doesnt make sense :
i have this function to update an iframe and i want to pass on the page that that iframe is displaying :
function frameclick(pageurl)
{
$.post("session_write.php?",
{
frameurl : pageurl
}
$("#iFrame1").attr('src', pageurl);
console.log ('<?php echo "logout:".$langpath.$_SESSION['frameurl'];?>');
}
pageurl is ex. "/lang/en/new.htm" - and if i inspect it with firebug i also can see it says that it passes it correctly ( also with conversion of /).
my script serverside that its posted to is like this :
#session_write.php
<?php
session_start();
print_r($_GET['frameurl']);
if (isset($_GET['frameurl']))
{
$_SESSION['frameurl'] = $_GET['frameurl'];
print_r($_SESSION);
}
?>
Posting to that php script on the server will fail via the javascropt - $_SESSION['frameurl'] will be '', but if i ex. do it manually like this : (http):
//localhost/phpmenu/session_write.php?frameurl=lang%2Fen%2Fnew.htm
then it will be correctly set in the $_SESSION["frameurl"] variable.
I simply cannot understand whats different between doing the javascript post and doing it manually in the browser and why its causing me this problem ?
anyone with an idea ? thanks
You are using .post
, which executes a POST request, but when you type in the URL in the address bar, that is a GET request.
$_GET
retrieves any params passed through GET, while $_POST
retrieves any params passed through POST. So if you use .post
with Javascript but try to retrieve with $_GET
in PHP, it wouldn't work.
When you POST variables to a PHP file, $_GET
is not set. Use $_POST['frameurl']
instead. Also, it looks like you're missing a close paren in frameclick
to end the post
call.
You are passing data via a POST
request and retrieving for all the GET requests. Use $_POST
instead. You may also be interested in $_REQUEST
