How to get JavaScript variable value in PHP

Add a cookie with the javascript variable you want to access.

document.cookie="profile_viewer_uid=1";

Then acces it in php via

$profile_viewer_uid = $_COOKIE['profile_viewer_uid'];

You will need to use JS to send the URL back with a variable in it such as: http://www.site.com/index.php?uid=1

by using something like this in JS:

window.location.href=”index.php?uid=1";

Then in the PHP code use $_GET:

$somevar = $_GET["uid"]; //puts the uid varialbe into $somevar

Here is the Working example: Get javascript variable value on the same page.

<script>
var p1 = "success";
</script>

<?php
echo "<script>document.writeln(p1);</script>";
?>
