I have a page with php and javascript. In the php section i need to call a function with an argument $arg, Now $arg is the problem, $arg is actually value of a dropdown option in the same page . Here is what i am trying to accomplish.

 <?php include("aclass.php")?>
<script language="javascript">
function getoption(val){
}
</script>
<html>
 <select name="sel" onchange="getoption();">
   <option value="1">One</option>
   <option value="2">Two</option>   
</html>
<?php 
$object=new a;
$object->calculate($arg);
 ?>

// Here the issue is $arg should be the value i select in dropdown, $arg should be 1 if i select One and should be 2 if i select Two in dropdown.

” Is there a possibility to pass the javascript value ‘val’ to php variable $arg “

    The thing you want to do is not possible without a form submission or without a contact to the server. PHP is a server side language whereas javascript is client side. So obviously you cannot do a server function in the client side.

    So, either make this as a form and submit the form on change of the value in select or if you dont want reload of the page, try using ajax
