I'm dynamically generating a list. I want to make each row hover on mouseover and clickable to a link. I want the link to pass the id of the content of the row.

Basically:

foreach ($courses as $cid=>cinfo){ 
  $univ = $cinfo['univ'];
  $desc = $cinfo['desc'];
  $size = $cinfo['size'];
  $start = $cinfo['start'];
  print "
"."$desc
"."$univ
".
        "Number of students: $size
".
        "Started at: ".date('F d, Y',strtotime($start))."
".
}

The issue is in the js/jquery. I want to be able to grab the $cid and pass it to the student.php page upon click. The php code above works but the js won't of course. I know the fundamental of client-side vs server-side languages. This question doesn't warrant a lecture. I know I cannot do this exactly, but it is what I want to happen ultimately. Any thoughts on how I can achieve this simply? Thanks in advance my friends!

Yes, if you include the

In your case, you would be looking into the following code structure:

The reason why this is possible is because although the Javascript is run on the client-side, it's processed on the server-side first prior to being presented on the page. Thus, it'll replace all necessary instances of $cid with the one you have included.

Enjoy and good luck!

You can do it like this :

    $(location).attr('href','');

The javascript code doesn't know it comes from php, it appears as a constant (a literal) for it.
