PHP Syntax for Javascript question
Posted on 2013-01-22
Hi all,
I have the follow show/hide script that works correctly.
However when I want to add a PHP loop into the file it does not work. Perhaps I have the syntax wrong for this?
Any help would be appreciated.

I have the follow show/hide script that works correctly.
<html>
<head>
<title>my javascript show script</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function showStuff(id) {
if (document.getElementById(id).style.display == 'block')
document.getElementById(id).style.display = 'none';
else
document.getElementById(id).style.display = 'block'
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="#" onclick="showStuff('answer1'); return false;">What price are your apples?</a><br>
<span id="answer1" style="display: none;">Our apples are 30 pence each. If you buy 10 or more we can sell them at a discounted bulk rate of 25 pence each.</span></p>
</body>
</html>

Top of PHP part:
$html = array('total_meditations_today' => '<p>Meditations Today: __ </p>',
'total_journals_today' => '<p>Journal Entries Today: __ </p>',
'total_exercises_today' => '<p>Exercises Logged: Today: __ </p>',
'total_dyads_today' => '<p>Dyads Completed Today: __ </p>',
'total_ebooks_downloaded_today' => '<p>Ebooks Downloaded: __ </p>',
'total_ebooks_shelf_today' => '<p>Ebooks On Shelf: __ </p>'
);
$res = array('total_meditations_today' => $total_meditations_today,
'total_journals_today' => $total_journals_today,
'total_exercises_today' => $total_exercises_today,
'total_dyads_today' => $total_dyads_today,
'total_ebooks_downloaded_today' => $total_ebooks_downloaded_today,
'total_ebooks_shelf_today' => $total_ebooks_shelf_today,
);
arsort($res, SORT_NUMERIC); //Sort an array in reverse order
?>
Body:
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function showStuff(id) {
if (document.getElementById(id).style.display == 'block')
document.getElementById(id).style.display = 'none';
else
document.getElementById(id).style.display = 'block'
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="#" onclick="showStuff('answer1'); return false;">Today:</a><br>
<span id="answer1" style="display: none;"><?php foreach ($res as $k => $v) {
echo str_replace('__', $v, $html[$k]) . PHP_EOL;
} ?>
</span></p>
</body>
</html>
Any help would be appreciated.

Change your body like this
I have removed the </p> after </span> and placed it before <span>..
The problem is </p> tag breaks and creates <p> for all lines within foreach statement which in turn moves the content outside span
<body>
<p><a href="#" onclick="showStuff('answer1'); return false;">Today:</a><br></p>

foreach ($res as $k => $v) {
echo str_replace('__', $v, $html[$k]) . PHP_EOL;
} ?>
</span>
