i'm using javascript and php for my pop up window. the plan is to pass the row id on the parent page to the pop up window.
it's working fine with this code:
<a href="#" onclick="PopupCenter('example.php', 'myPop1',500,400); " class="add"><img src='images/buttons/edit.png' title='Edit Content'></a>
the pop up appears. but when i try to add ?textID=<?$row['textID']?>, which is the code i'm using to pass the row id that ends up like this:
<a href="#" onclick="PopupCenter('example.php?textID=<?$row['textID']?>', 'myPop1',500,400); " class="add"><img src='images/buttons/edit.png' title='Edit Content'></a>
the pop up does not work. it appears to be just refreshing the page. thank you for your help.
here's my complete code
