HTML: <input type='hidden' id='myDate' name='myDate'> JS: document.getElementById('myDate').value = getDate1; PHP: $date = $_POST['myDate'];

Explanation: Make a hidden html element. Set its value with javascript. Get its value with PHP.

If you go to the console and view the value of the HTML element (document.getElementById('myDate').value), is it displaying? – Simcha Dec 03 '19 at 06:30
Uncaught ReferenceError: getDate1 is not defined at HTMLDivElement.gridTable.onclick (calender.php:745) gridTable.onclick @ calender.php:745 – sixthstar Dec 03 '19 at 06:41
Try assigning the date to getDate1 and the dom element separately, like this: var getDate1 = selectedDate.toLocaleString("en-US", { month: "long", day: "numeric", year: "numeric" }); document.getElementById("eventDayName").innerHTML = getDate1; – Simcha Dec 03 '19 at 07:03
