could you help me pass a variable that was taken from a html form into javascript.
The form asks for the tablename
<br>
New tablename:<br>
<input type="text" name="table">
It is passed through PHP:
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$user = $_POST['user'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$table = $_POST['table'];
$geometry = $_POST['geom'];
}
A first action is underway, and created successfully: the Geoserver postgis table is created through PHP curl (entire code below)
then the javascript tries to get $table with a PHP insert; this will help it load the newly created postgis Geoserver table from the PHP, into the WFST javascript ;
<?php
echo "var thedata = " .$table. ";\n";
?>
...
var wfstPoly = new L.WFST({
url: 'https://mappingforyou.eu/geoserver/ows',
typeNS: 'opendata',
typeName: thedata,
But this code doesn't work:
<?php
echo "var thedata = " .$table. ";\n";
?>
-- The code works fine except for the thedata javascript variable. The entire form:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h2>PG GS input test</h2>
<form method="POST" action="test1.php">
User:<br>
<input type="text" name="user">
<br>
Password:<br>
<input type="password" name="password">
<br>
New tablename:<br>
<input type="text" name="table">
<input type="radio" name="geom" id="Point" value="Point" />
<label for="Point">Point</label>
<input type="radio" name="geom" id="MultiLineString" value="MultiLineString" />
<label for="MultiLine">Line</label>
<input type="radio" name="geom" id="MultiPolygon" value="MultiPolygon" />
<label for="MultiPolygon">Area</label>
<br><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Into this javascript test1.php page:

CodePudding user response：
In the code you provided, this:
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$user = $_POST['user'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$table = $_POST['table'];
$geometry = $_POST['geom'];
}
...comes after this:
echo "var thedata = " .$table. ";\n";
The initial assignment of PHP variable $table needs to come before it is used.
And if the the table name, provided by the form text input, is a string, $table needs to be quoted for when it gets assigned to the Javascript variable thedata:
For example:
function jsFunction(){
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$user = $_POST['user'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$table = $_POST['table'];
$geometry = $_POST['geom'];
}
// ...
echo "var thedata = \"" .$table. "\";\n";
?>
<!-- ... -->
Keep in mind, PHP executes on the server, and the resulting text, containing HTML, Javascript, CSS, is sent to the browser through HTTP. The browser never gets PHP code. The browser only gets HTML, Javascript, and CSS. Once the browser gets these from the server it evaluates the Javascript and renders the HTML and CSS.
This, on the server:
function jsFunction(){
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$user = $_POST['user'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$table = $_POST['table'];
$geometry = $_POST['geom'];
}
// ...
echo "var thedata = \"" .$table. "\";\n";
?>
<!-- ... -->
...is executed resulting in this:
function jsFunction(){
var thedata = "user provided table name";
<!-- ... -->
...which is then sent as text to the browser.
I elaborate further on the distinct PHP and Javascript execution contexts here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/72023066/2743458
CodePudding user response：
Try below
var thedata = <?php echo $table; ?> "\n";
