I've got a simple .php file with Rock, Paper, Scissors game (some schoolwork) that tracks your score and a .html file with buttons to choose from R/P/S.
Score is tracked via session variable, is there a simple way to pass the value of this variable and display it on the html page?
You should generate your HTML page from PHP file too. That's how php works. That way you can print out PHP variables. HTML is no programming language - it's just markup language...like ...hmmm..XML.
You can add addhandler in .htaccess for html files to treat it as php file, see example:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
but instead you can, avoid above and change the file extension from .html to .php you can pass it as query string GET, see example below:
http://example.com/myphppage.php?key=value
or you can access session by adding session_start() at starting of page
.html|.htm files as PHP files.
<strike>code/text</strike> tags on the originally posted code/text that you may have a made a mistake. That tells the community that, well.. you made a mistake. Everybody makes mistakes, even I do at times. If we didn't make them, we wouldn't have learned anything, right? ;-) cheersIf you save your .html file as a .php file, you can do this quite easily by adding
<?php echo $_SESSION['score']; ?>
into your HTML. For example:
<p><?php echo $_SESSION['score']; ?></p>
<?php echo $_SESSION[ "my_var" ]; ?>. By the way, you should change your profile image.
