Hi
  I am new to this forum , and new to Php,i have one doubt.


First there is one page called Index.php, that page contains menus in javascript ,While clicking a menu item in a page, corresponding value is to be passed to the next page (php page), and that page should be opened.




help me .........:)

hi

can u post ur code infact it will too helpful to understand
ur problem

You can use hidden fileds to pass informations throughout the pages.
Also getting data from forms are quite easy.
<code>
<form action=\"thenextpage.php\" method=\"POST\">
 Input Data :<input type=\"text\" name=\"somename\">
 <input type=\"SUBMIT\" value=\"GO\">
</form>
</code>

       Now if you write $datafetched = $_POST['somename']; at the beginning of the page the variable would contain the information from the previous page to the next page in the variable $datafetched.

       SESSION is the smartest and convenient way to pass data throught pages. Once session variable is set, it is served throghout the visit of the site till the page is closed. Read other threads on using sessions or let us know if you need further info on session.

Perhaps u r talking of querystrings: index.php?rqstr=aha
U can retrieve such variable on a target page ( here, index.php ) using $_GET['rqstr'] or $HTTP_GET_VARS['rqstr'] or $_REQUEST['rqstr']Now u may write a switch/case PHP statement -n- do what u want :)
