as the title already says I am calling a onclick method in php, but every string with a space in it seems to fail.
php (mysql loop)
echo '<img onclick=test("'.$row['name'].'","name'.$row['id'].'") src="blabla.png"/>';
javascript
function test(vali, id){
alert(vali); //Maria, Josef (but not "Michael Jackson")
alert(id); //name23, name28
}
As I said if its a string without a space, alert method is getting called and shows the text, however with at least one space nothing happens.
Your whole onclick handler needs to be quoted. You then need to also HTML-escape the quotes inside it.
echo '<img onclick="test("'.$row['name'].'","name'.$row['id'].'")" src="blabla.png"/>';
In the HTML this will then appear as
<img onclick="test("A Name With Spaces","name1")" src="blabla.png"/>
And the javascript part is ultimately decoded to
test("A Name With Spaces","name1")
\" but you're still not wrapping the onclick handler and really should avoid innerHTML in favour of more modern methods like var img = new Image(); img.addEventListener('click', someFunction); someElement.appendChild(img)You can use it like below
<img onclick='test("<?php echo $row['name']; ?>",name="<?php echo $row['id']; ?>")' src="blabla.png"/>
