pass variables through url? 1

[idtstudios2]

I'm trying to pass javascript variables through an URL and I can't seem to get it correct. I think you can tell what i'm trying to do. I just don't know how to do it

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
tag_type = "personal";
tag_content = "political";
//--></script>

<script type="text/javascript"
src="

http://test.com/generate.php?tag_type=?????&tag_content=?????">

</script>

i'm using a php script to generate the javascript if anyone is confused about the .php extension.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

[red]document.location[/red]="

http://test.com/generate.php?tag_type=

[red]"+tag_type+"[/red]&tag_content=[red]"+tag_content;[/red]

'hope that helps.

You cannot use a php file as an imported javascript file. It has to be a .js file. What exactly are you trying to do?

actually the php file just outputs javascript after running the passed variables througha database check. everything works fine except the variables.

You can either:
a. use document.write to write out the correct script tag (deprecated!)
b. use DOM methods to create a script element and insert it into the head.

also, you may need to set the correct mime type in the php file:

<?php 
  header("Content-type: text/javascript");
?>
