Execute Javascript via <A HREF

[james0816]

I know...probably an easy question but i'm a newbie on the Java side.

How do you do it?

my preferred method is:

<a href="#" onclick="doThing(); return false;">click here to do things</a>

Thx...one more thing....can you use a PHP variable embedded inside a javascript?

(I.E. I want to use the Window.Open to open a new window. The address of which is supplied via a MySQL DB.

of course. PHP is done rendering output before it's sent to the client. JavaScript won't operate until (in this case) the user clicks a link.
