HTMLHelp Forums _ Markup (HTML, XHTML, XML) _ Connecting the functionality of php code to html pop-up

Posted by: chrisj Dec 7 2022, 12:18 AM

This code is in the php file:

CODE

if (empty($error) && $_POST['set_p_v'] == 0){
echo '<script type="text/javascript">alert("myPopup")</script>';
}

how do I connect that to a separate html file, that has this:

CODE

function myFunction() {
var popup = document.getElementById("myPopup");
popup.classList.toggle("show");
}

and this:

CODE

and where does the pop-up message/text go?

I look forward guidance/assistance

This code is in the php file:

echo '<script type="text/javascript">alert("myPopup")</script>';
}

That PHP script should create a javascript alertbox with the message text "myPopup" (provided the PHP script's IF conditions are true).

What does "connect" mean here? I guess you could put the above PHP code in the HTML file.

But note that the javascript alertbox above has nothing to do with the SPAN element with the ID "popup", and neither is a javascript popup window --the latter are made like this: https://htmlhelp.com/faq/html/links.html#window-specify
