View 2 RepliesI currently have a form that asks for certain info. When the user enters and then submits it, a javascript script sends the info to a php form and then php does its thing. While doing its thing, php tries to change a php session. I am wondering if there is a way to change the php session, and have it take effect on the user end without a refresh. So if the user has a session for their name (Bob), then goes to this form and changes it to Joe, then session the user has will be changed from Bob to Joe without the page reloading. Is this possible?

if users have Javascript enabled.
My first thought was to create a Javascript that writes a script tag
referencing a php page, which sets a $_SESSION variable.
javascript.js:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--//
document.write('<s'+'cript type="text/javascript"
src="javascript.php"></s'+'cript>');
//-->
</script>
javascript.php:
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['javascript'] = 'enabled'
?>
I can see that both the javascript.js and javascipt.php files are
executing from the web logs, but when I try to query the
$_SESSION['javascript'] variable from another page $_SESSION is empty.
Is it possible to create/update a Php Session with Javascript?
Might it be done using URLEncoded URL, Javascript XMLHttpRequest, or
something of the like?

I am trying to reference a session variable inside some JQuery code. Theseexamples below arewhat I am using currently just to try and see if I can get something to display and nothing shows up.[code]Just to make sure an alert works, I threw in a alert("hi"); which works fine. It is when I try to write out the session variable it fails.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have the following few snippets of code:
JS:
Code:
$(function() {
$('.delCatButton').live('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();

The $_SESSION['delCatFormID'] variable in the process.php page is incorrect, and never equals the posted variable.
I'm using a geolocator service to find the zipcode of a web page visitor using the code below. This will be used to serve up ads to the visitor based on their zip code. The question is, how do I pass the zip code value from the script into an ASP variable, such as a cookie or session object?
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.iplocationtools.com/iplocationtools.js?key=my_site_key"></script>
<script language="JavaScript">

So i have this code

and what i want to happen is the variable number to update so that the user can see how many times the loop has run in real time. If you have to change the code around for it to work that is fine as i can adapt my code to it And obviously this script has no real function to it, it is just an example to show the jist of my actual code(don't think you want to look at a few hundred lines now do you)
I am having difficulty on maintaining session when using ajax.
I first load a page with a session genterated. But since AJAX is a
client side activity where I sent an AJAX request to an url without any session
info. Of course, the server will create a new session. Even though I
can write the session id into the first page where I made ajax calls, it is not a secure way...
How do people deal with this problem?
I'm just beginning with JavaScript (and Ajax). My loginscript now works with Ajax - that is; the script is sending a request to the servers PHP script to check username and password, but I wonder what that script should return - and how to use that response. Either XML or pure text: The response is now "false" if the user couldn't log in for some reason, and the users ID and real name if the login went well...
But then the problem: if login IS ok - so that the users ID and real name is returned from the serverscript - I would like to store those variables in a session variable ($_SESSION in PHP). How do I get those variables back to the client script from JavaScript?
Is there a way to check for to see if the user has session cookies
enabled? I know how to check to see if they have cookies in general enabled,
but how do you test for just session cookies?
Using window.open(), the exec'd child window shares session information with
the parent. Is there a way in JavaScript to exec a new browser window that
does not share?
I had written code which created a shopping cart into an array using
vbscript and then transferred the information into a session
variable. However what I didn't know was that deleting/manipulating
information in an array using vbscript was not that easy.
In doing some reading and research it seemed that js was more flexible
in this area. My questions:
1) if I want to store cart items/details in an array and session
variable do I need to use only js (and can not switch back and forth
from vbscript and js)
2) if I have an array 6x12 and want to delete all the items
associated with say arrayItem[1, 0...12] what is the proper coding to
delete...is it splice?
3) any good articles about js, arrays, and multidimensional arrays
for a beginner?
Cookie name is "viewStatus" value saved is 1
Closing all windows should end the session but on the reopening cookie page I find the session cookie is still alive.
If I alert(document.cookie) I get viewStatus = 1
If I rename the cookie to say "vStatus" and close the window when I reopen it and alert(document.cookie) I get
viewstatus=1 vStatus=1
any ideas?
This only happens in IE ( as always)
PS
I just did a little experiment, I closed all windows, created a new file with just
<script>
alert(document.cookie)
</script>
in it then opened the file and still got
viewstatus=1 vStatus=1
I know I did not have this problem before because I have a session cookie example on my site and that does not work now so is it something new that is wrong with IE.
How do you save a session value in JavaScript?
View 4 Replies View RelatedIn my project i am using ajax and jquery. After going to a page via ajax without page reload i want to see the same page if the user refresh the browser. I used the cookie plugin inorder to solve. As it is not safe i am trying to do the same using session. I have dowloaded the jquery session plugin and initialized the session variable using the below satements.
var SESSION_URL = $.session("current_url",Url);
var SESSION_DATASTRING = $.session("dataString",dataString);
and i am getting the session value in the same jquery $(function) where it is initialised, through alert($.session("current_url");
But i am not getting this session value in an another jquery event like
window.load(function(){
});
How can i get the initialized session value in an another event.
How to pass (well more like bridge) session information to the client side from server side.
Right now, what I'm basically doing is echoing the userID and the username into a method in JavaScript tag at the bottom of every page.
The reason why I am doing this is simply for AJAX-related interactivity.
This is an example of what the code looks like:
Code:
A) It requires JavaScript code to be pasted within the HTML document (its non-external).
B) It requires the code to be echoed in EVERY PAGE.
C) A PHP Script or Class must maintain the responsibility of printing the session values.
D) The variable data cannot be accessed from any imported javascript files prior to where it was printed.
Now, I'm wondering about using Cookies. This would benefit me since I don't have to inject any ugly javascript code into the HTML output. I can also remove the PHP script that echoes the values and the changes will be purely handled in PHP (cookies can be updated!).
The only issue that's stopping me is simply security. Since cookies can be edited very easily on the client side, then the data can be changed. But then again so can the JavaScript (using a tool like Grease Monkey).
Once again, I am aware to never ever to trust the client side data without any validation; therefore using some sort of hash checksum, the cookie data can be compared to its PHP equivalents.
I´m using this code to avoid the "click to activate" a flash file, it does work, but it seems like the browser is still loading something (not flash), it is related to this code, since removing it, the browser stops loading.
objects = document.getElementsByTagName("object");
for (var i = 0; i < objects.length; i++)
{
objects[i].outerHTML = objects[i].outerHTML;
}
How can we check whther a session has expired in javascript??

Does anyone know if there is going to be a jQuery workshop the day before AJAX experience in Boston on September 14-16th, 2009?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use jQuery AJAX. What my requirement is, i wish to load user names from DB in dataset, convert it to JSON format and store it in memory or using jQuery data for use while a user is browsing my site, i.e for a session. This way I can use autocomplete or my own code to display data to user.
