copied!<p>You are mixing up Java and JavaScript. For example this is Java syntax, you can't write this within a script tag which should only contain JavaScript:</p> <pre><code>string [][] hhgdata = new string[numrows][4]; </code></pre> <p>The JavaScript arrays are dynamic, this should be enough:</p> <pre><code>var hhgdata = []; </code></pre> <p>When you want to add another array into it, as you seem to be doing later in your code, just do this:</p> <pre><code>hhgdata[counter] = []; </code></pre> <p>And then assign to the inner array:</p> <pre><code>hhgdata[counter][1] = hhgtitle; </code></pre> <p>You are also creating multiple assigning an unquoted string literal to variable with this (assuming <code>$hhgtitle</code> contains a string):</p> <pre><code>hhgtitle = <?php echo $hhgtitle; ?>; </code></pre> <p>It should be something like this:</p> <pre><code>hhgtitle = <?php echo '"' . $hhgtitle .'"'; ?>; </code></pre> <p>Finally, while it's not incorrect, your PHP <code>while</code> loop is creating multiple <code>script</code> elements in your HTML.</p> <h2><strong>EDIT</strong></h2> <p>I have made the changes described above as well as in comments, copy-paste exactly and see how it goes:</p> <pre><code><body> <?php $con = mysql_connect("XXXXXX.COM","guest","password"); mysql_select_db("HHG", $con); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } else { $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM articles", $con); $numrows = mysql_num_rows($result); echo "DB connection OK <br/>"; echo "Found "; echo $numrows; echo " records <br/><br/>"; } // EVERYTHING WORKS UP TO HERE ?> <script type="text/javascript"> document.write("THIS IS THE FISRT JS DOING SOMETHING"); // THIS DOES NOTHING numrows = <?php echo $numrows; ?>; // THIS DOES NOTHING var hhgdata = new Array(numrows); // THIS DOES NOTHING document.write("Records = " + numrows + "<br/>"); // THIS DOES NOTHING </script> <?php $counter = 1; while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { echo $row["idimg"]; echo "<br/>"; //THIS WORKS $hhgtitle = $row["hhgtitle"]; //THIS WORKS echo $hhgtitle; echo "<br/>"; //THIS WORKS ?> <script type="text/javascript"> //THIS WORKS var counter = <?php echo $counter; ?>; //THIS WORKS document.write("counter = " + counter); //THIS WORKS hhgtitle = <?php echo '"' . $hhgtitle .
