Answer 1

You should use AJAX e.g. $.ajax, $.get, $.post

$.ajax({
  url: 'ajax/test.php',
  success: function(data) {
    $('.result').html(data);
    alert('Load was performed.');
  }
});

In your PHP file just echo the result you want to receive.

Answer 2

there is no way to use a php function directly from jquery, you have to create a php script to encapsulate your function call then call your php script via jquery ajax functions.

If you want to insert php calls to generate javascript code this is a different issue as I don't think thatgenerating directly into your jquery code would be a good idea, you should probably generate a separated jsonp output from your php then use the object in jquery.

Answer 3

Javascript is executed on the client, and PHP is executed on the server, therefore you need to make a call to the server, for example though AJAX.

Answer 4

Use Ajax or JSON :-)

Answer 5

Ajax as descibe in other post, but this is what code you would need to do:

$(".bttn_insert").live('click',
    function()
    {
       var post_data = {
           data_number:$(this).attr('data-number')
       }
       $.post('getdetails.php',post_data,function(data){
           //Gets called upon completion.
           $('#some_selector p').html(data);
       })
    }
);

and the PHP file, depending on the way your configuration is:

<?php
//include 'your functions';
//or
/*
    function getDetails(){...}
*/

if(!empty($_POST['data_number']))
{
    if(is_numeric($_POST['data_number']))
    {
        echo getDetails( (int)$_POST['data_number'] );
    }
}
?>
