Um, so I am submitting a form...and processing it with php...

So, within the php conditional, I would like to call a javascript function...

Can I just do like this or is there a better way?:


if(isset($_POST['submit'])){

echo '<script type="text/javascript">';
echo 'ripcord();';
echo '</script>';

}


Thanks for all your help :)

About the only "easier" way to do that, would be to throw it all on one line like so

if(isset($_POST['submit'])){echo '<script type="text/javascript">ripcord()</script>'}

if all you are doing with the PHP is setting a javascript function, why use PHP at all?
