jQuery datepicker result to PHP variable 1

[maharg]

Hi

I'd like to use the really neat jQuery DataRange picker described at

http://www.foxrunsoftware.net/articles/javascript/date-range-picker-similar-to-google-analytics/

but am struggling to understand how to transfer the chosen two dates into 2 variables in PHP, so that I can get them into a MySQL query.

I'm not familiar with jQuery at all, so would really appreciate a pointer on this one.

All the best,

Graham

You'd probably want to copy the datepicker value to an input element such as a textbox to then submit to your PHP script.

For instance:

onChange[COLOR=#990000]:[/color] [b][COLOR=#0000FF]function[/color][/b][COLOR=#990000]([/color]dates[COLOR=#990000],[/color]el[COLOR=#990000])[/color] [COLOR=#FF0000]{[/color]
[tab]  [i][COLOR=#9A1900]// update the range display[/color][/i]
[tab]  $[COLOR=#990000]([/color][COLOR=#FF0000]'#date-range-field span'[/color][COLOR=#990000]).[/color][b][COLOR=#000000]text[/color][/b][COLOR=#990000]([/color]dates[COLOR=#990000][[/color][COLOR=#993399]0[/color][COLOR=#990000]].[/color][b][COLOR=#000000]getDate[/color][/b][COLOR=#990000]()+[/color][COLOR=#FF0000]' '[/color][COLOR=#990000]+[/color]dates[COLOR=#990000][[/color][COLOR=#993399]0[/color][COLOR=#990000]].[/color][b][COLOR=#000000]getMonthName[/color][/b][COLOR=#990000]([/color][b][COLOR=#0000FF]true[/color][/b][COLOR=#990000])+[/color][COLOR=#FF0000]', '[/color][COLOR=#990000]+[/color]dates[COLOR=#990000][[/color][COLOR=#993399]0[/color][COLOR=#990000]].[/color][b][COLOR=#000000]getFullYear[/color][/b][COLOR=#990000]()+[/color][COLOR=#FF0000]' - '[/color][COLOR=#990000]+[/color]

Perfect, thank you so much! I was close, but not close enough!

Very best wishes,
