Call PHP script without changing the Page's current HTML

Expand Post »

Here is the problem. I have an HTML page that includes some javascripts. These scripts modify the HTML contents. Some PHP scripts are already in the same file. I want to pass some variables from Javascript to PHP script. If I use get or post, all changes made by javascript are removed and I only have the original HTML elements and whatever that PHP script does.

I want to keep the page as it is now (with javascript modifications), and in the same time use the PHP script to update a MySQL database. How can I do this?

You should be able to use jQuery to achieve this. You can find more information on jQuery here: http://jquery.com/

Call a php file with query string from your javascript.

PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
window.open("update.php?id=10"...)
window.open("update.php?id=10"...)
