How can i make this work.
<a href="#" onClick="javascript.functiontoget$date();">'.$date.'</a>
the $date value is inside the while loop
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($query)){
$date = $row['Date'];
echo '<tr class="normalRow"><td><a href="#" onClick="javascript.functiontoget$date();">$date</a></td></tr>;'
}
Variables aren't expanded inside single-quotes strings, only double-quoted strings. You need to use concatenation.
echo '<tr class="normalRow"><td><a href="#" onClick="javascript.functiontoget$date();">' . $date . '</a></td></tr>;'
So either set the date in the method you are calling
onclick="foo('thedate')"
or reference the element that was clicked and read the text
onclick="foo(this)"
and
function foo(elem) {
alert(elem.textContent);
}
function foo1(str) {
alert(str);
}
function foo2(elem) {
alert(elem.textContent);
}
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td><a href="#" onclick="foo1('hello')">hello</a>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><a href="#" onclick="foo2(this)">hello</a>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
