Question

I have a Javascript variable which I am setting a PHP variable to.

function cancel(number) {
    var message = "<?= $message[" + number + "]; ?>";
}

$message is an array. “number” is the element of the array I want to set message to. Basically, I want to set a Javascript variable to a PHP variable using a Javascript variable as the element picker. So if “number” was 2, it would select:

$message[2];

However, the above approach doesn’t work, and I’m not even sure if this is possible.

Answer 1

It isn’t. Use XHR to retrieve the value from the server.
