How to store PHP session variable in JQuery variable.
I have one php file where i am using session variable as
$local_session = $_SESSION['sessionusername'];
and that PHP falls also using one .js file where i want to store this $local_session which is PHP variable to JQuery variable
It is as
session_start();
ob_start();
if(!$_SESSION['sessionusername'])
{
header("location:index.php");
}
else
{
include ('connection2.php');
include('PHP/combo_val.php');
$local_session = $_SESSION['sessionusername'];
}
and after this my HTML code starts
You might do something like this in your java script:
var sessionVar = '<?php echo $local_session; ?>';
and then use this global JS variable wherever in your page.
sessionVar = <?= json_encode(...) ?>; -- note no explicit quotes around the value.
You can write some php-script which return session data, for example
JS:
//my.js
$.getJSON( "myssesiondata.php", function( data )
{
console.log(data);
}
PHP:
<?php
//mysession.php
return json_encode($_SESSION);
?>

My JQuery Code is as
var lgn_usr = '<?php echo $_SESSION["sessionusername"] ?>';
alert(lgn_usr);
and it display
<?php echo $_SESSION["sessionusername"] ?>
as message
"...js" file? Then try to rename it to ....php, it should solve the problem (almost).var lgn_usr = '<?php echo $_SESSION["sessionusername"] ?>'; is written somewhere in an external js file included in to the php file. This will not be seen by the PHP interpeter and thus this expression gets not interpeted and will be alerted out as it is by your Java Script.....php and include it with this ending. Or, better, go with some kind of AJAX solution handling the entire stuff server side, there are some answers already suggesting this below.@ Axel Amthor
My Jquery file code is as:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#submit').click(function() {
submit_fxn();
$('#form_nuser').submit(function(e) {
return false;
});
});
function submit_fxn(){
var check_flag = 0;
var lgn_usr = '<?php echo $local_session; ?>';
alert(lgn_usr);
};
});
OKay, I got it. $_SESSION is a PHP array, we cannot set it on the client side via Javascript. The value has to be sent to the server to be stored in the array. Now, I am going for other method....
