Question

i would like to send a variable on the next page this is what i have at the moment

<? php 
//some code 
$ID = $_GET['ID']; 
echo "<div id='show_here'></div>";

    <script type ="text/javascript">

    $(document).ready(function(){
      setInterval(function(){
          $('#show_here').load('fetch.php') 
      }, 3000);

Answer 1

If I were you, I'd clean that code up properly before anything else.

<? php 
//some code 
$ID = $_GET['ID'];
?>


<div id='show_here'></div>

<script type ="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function(){
  setInterval(function(){
      $('#show_here').load('fetch.php?id=<?php echo $ID; ?>') // we put the ID here 
  }, 3000);
});
</script>

In your fetch.php file, you'll need to access the $ID via $_GET again.

I'm sticking within the scope of your question here, but something to note is that you best sanitize that information. Especially if you're going to use it in a database query!

Answer 2

you can use

.load('fetch.php?id=<?php echo $id ?>'); 

or

.load('fetch.php' , {id : '<?php echo $id ?>'}) ;
