How to run php code in javascript when callback is called?

Question

I'm using easyModal to create modal windows in my web. Saw that they have callback onClose and I want use php code on close is it possible, if yes How to do that? I want to unset some values from sessions (don't have much experience in javascript, jquery or ajax)

This is my code:

<div id="ebox">
    <?php
    echo $_SESSION['unameE'];
    echo $_SESSION['pwordE'];
    echo $_SESSION['emailE'];
    ?>
</div>

$(function() {
    $('#ebox').easyModal( {
        autoOpen:<?php echo $error; ?>
        onClose:???

    });
});

Or maybe there is another solution that unsets values from session after displaying it once?

as long as the js is in line within the php page then you should be able to but its not nice. Why don't you load a php page into the modal and do the code within that, but within as a function not recommended ect — Simon Davies, Dec 30 '13 at 22:21
$.ajax({ url: 'script.php?argument=value&foo=bar' }); see: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3548802/call-php-function-from-jquery — Jérôme Teisseire, Dec 30 '13 at 22:39
look into AJAX/jQuery's $.post function. you can't straight-up mix JS and PHP, they are separate processes on the client and server-side, respectively. — HC_, Dec 30 '13 at 23:18

on your script you should have :

onClose: function(){ 
   $("#ebox").html(' ') ; 
   $.post("remove-session.php"); 
}

and then on the page "remove-session.php" you can do all sort of stuff with your session:

<?php 
  unset($_SESSION['unameE']); 
  //... 
  //or even
  session_destroy(); 
?>
