i would like to create a file.js with php but i think that in my code there are a lot of errors:
i have multidimensional array:
$report= array();
$report= array(array(3,6),array(4,8));
that is:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[0] => 3
[1] => 6
)
[1] => Array
(
[0] => 4
[1] => 8
)
)
Set a content-type for js file
$header = "Content-type: text/javascript";
$dir = "outreport/";
$nomefile = "report.js";
//delete a file with same name if exists
foreach (glob($dir."*".$nomefile) as $v){
unlink($v);
}
$percorso = $dir.$nomefile;
file_put_contents($percorso, $report);
header($header);
print($report);
There are two problems:
1) when launching the file.php asks me to download the same file but in javascript
2) in the "outvulcani" it creates the file report.js but is empty
I wish that in the file "report.js" there is the array $report but written in javascript code:
var reports = [
[3,6]
[4,8]
];
Kindly, you can help me out?
Thanks a lot! Sorry for my english
PHP has an function to convert Arrays to JSON. You could use this code for "inspiration".
$report = array(array(3,6),array(4,8));
$javascriptContent = json_encode($report);
// Convert to string
$javascriptContent = "var reports = ". $javascriptContent . ";\n";
file_put_contents($percorso, $javascriptContent);
The reason for "Download" is the header, please remove it.
